Summary

I am very detailed oriented when it comes to patient care. I have 3 years experience of phlebotomy under my CNA license at Wake Forest Baptist Health. ASCP certified. CPR/AED certified. I enjoy being challenged by my work. It give me room to grow and learn different techniques that bring me out of my comfort zone while also building a rapport with my patients and their families. I have 7 years of experience in caring for patients ranging from pediatrics, adults and geriatrics.
