Summary
Most of my career has been in the legal field. While this has nothing to do with working in an ER it has given me years of experience dealing with all kinds of people in a high-stress and fast-paced environment. I am a detail-oriented team player with strong organizational skills. I can multi task without becoming overwhelmed and deal with difficult people without losing my patience.
