Summary
Dedicated and hardworking nursing student with hands-on experience as a Nursing Assistant in a senior nursing home.

I am eager to bring my strong work ethic and passion for supporting others to a Patient Care Tech (CNA) role in NICU. This opportunity will help me grow my clinical skills, broaden my neonatal health care experience, and leverage transferrable skills to contribute meaningfully to a specialized team focused on supporting infants.
