Summary

A resilient and compassionate Registered Nurse with 2 years of experience in intensive care units of Level I & II Trauma hospitals. Collaborative and adaptable in diverse acute patient's care settings. Passionate and committed to a life-long learning in pursuing a Doctoral Nursing degree in Anesthesia. My credo: The initial indication of incompetence often lies in a reluctance to embrace growth through learning and a failure to adapt to a challenging environment.
