Summary

With numerous years in healthcare, (whether as a CNA, LPN experience, Phlebotomy Certification, and/or performing medication administration), as well as in Customer Service, working with the public is important to me. Taking on the role of a "people pleaser" and being social are good traits of personality, however, working independently or in a small group can be just as enjoyable. Customer/client satisfaction is a priority. Expanding and gaining more experience is always welcomed. Additionally, having several years of experience in clerical duties adds to listed skill set as well as having a strong work ethic.
