Summary

Experienced nursing professional (+20 years) bringing demonstrated critical care clinical expertise, leadership skills and technical knowledge in not only nursing environments, such as clinics and hospitals, but also in schools and in business with other roles working as a Business Development Exec with attorneys and physicians. Proficient in working with multidisciplinary teams to optimize patient care and achieving goals. Highly-motivated with desire to take on new challenges. Strong worth ethic, adaptability and exceptional interpersonal skills. Adept at working effectively unsupervised and quickly mastering new skills. As an altruistic connector for people, extending help or assistance to support someone or a company in achieving their objectives allows me to maximize my talents. Trying new roles beyond nursing has pushed me out of my comfort zone to new areas of personal growth. My biggest asset is my ability to communicate well with a range of people from patients to surgeons to CEOs of hospitals and companies. Working at a non-profit speaking and advocating for youth mental health awareness and suicide prevention has only heightened my desire to continue to help others get to a space of healing and recovery and getting the resources he or she needs. This work compounded with Business Development for Ellie Mental allows me to identify, acquire, assess, and seek partners that align with the mission and goals of the company. The business acumen that I have developed in all the BD roles allows me to to take a big picture of a situation, company or an individual weigh it up quickly, make a logical, sound decision confidently to make a positive impact towards achieving the objectives of the organization or person. At its core, I am very good at making connections and networking which aligns with talent acquisition aiming at aligning talent, personality, and skills sets with a company's vision.
