Summary

I have a solid foundation in patient care through my experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant in both hospital and rehabilitation settings, including work with veterans. I’m skilled in assisting with activities of daily living, monitoring vital signs, supporting physical therapy goals, and responding to changes in patient conditions.

In addition to clinical duties, I’ve developed strong communication, teamwork, and crisis response skills through roles like youth care work and as a YMCA youth sports attendant, where I supported vulnerable populations and maintained structured, safe environments.

My background reflects a consistent ability to stay calm under pressure, follow protocols, and adapt to fast-paced, high-responsibility roles—all of which are essential in both medical and community service positions.
