Summary

Based on my skills I am confident that I would be a great addition to your team as a professional phlebotomist. I am a highly motivated, energetic, self-starter; who is used to working in both a fast paced hospital and a slower paced laboratory environment. I am customer service focused, while being creative in maintaining deadlines/time management, staying on task while being conscientious of all paperwork/data entry of all patients coming through my office. Understanding the type of working conditions we are dealing with I am very flexible regarding scheduling and being "On Call" for mass casualty scenarios. My resume highlights my ability, knowledge, and expertise in phlebotomy and general medical office skills. I can provide upon request all documents/certifications regarding my qualifications of being a phlebotomist. I would like to thank you in advance for your time and consideration regarding my application. Respectfully, Tequesha Thronquist
