Summary
Flexible and motivated, I studied at the Orvis School of Nursing where I spearheaded a tutoring program that grew from just a single class offered to more than ten in the time that I was there. I trained new team members and orchestrated academic sessions weekly to guide my fellow students. After passing the torch upon my graduation, I shifted fully into the fast-paced environment of the medical telemetry unit which I had apprenticed for. My focus since has been expanding my clinical expertise as a registered nurse while using my growing skill set to coordinate and advocate for patients, improving their outcomes and experience.
