Summary
Motivated nursing student pursuing an Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) with the goal of becoming a Registered Nurse. This is the beginning of my healthcare journey, and I am eager to build on my three years of customer service experience as I transition into direct patient care. At Starbucks, I developed strong teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills in a fast-paced environment—qualities I now want to apply in a hospital setting. Bilingual in English and Spanish and BLS certified, I am passionate about learning from healthcare professionals, expanding my knowledge every day, and contributing empathy, adaptability, and dedication as I put my foot in the door of the medical field.
