Summary

Being a highly motivated employee with a desire to take on new challenges, I have a strong work ethic, am adaptable, and have exceptional interpersonal skills. Adept at working effectively independently, and also in team settings. In January 2024 I completed my nursing graduate program and have been a permanent employee in MCDU since. I am seeking to enhance my nursing skills and gain a broader exposure in this field. I am a hard worker and am committed to applying myself to become the best registered nurse I can be, and I believe working in the emergency department would support this.
