Summary

I started volunteering at the age of 14 and worked at Swedish straight out of Highschool. I am very passionate about working with patients and have excellent customer service skills working independently as well as a team built of 20+years in the field.

I am able to adapt at managing high patient volumes in busy hospital environments, offering superior communication and planning abilities combined with an understanding of admissions policies, scheduling requirements, and financial procedures.

Im detail oriented, reliable and completing tasks on a timely manner.

I believe that I would be a great asset to the team.
