Summary

Dear Team. I have been in healthcare for 21 years and a registered nurse since 2015. I am currently obtaining my DNP degree focus of Family Nurse Practitioner. My primary role has been in emergency medicine, ranging from level one trauma centers to rural access hospitals (largely as a contracted nurse). Of note, I am also bilingual in Spanish. I worked at a small island clinic in Mexico for 2 years and ran my own IV hydration business there. I have exceptional skills in learning quickly and making decisions under high stress situations. I have consistently been promoted to charge nurse roles, house supervisor, and preceptor roles at various locations with various acuities.
