Summary

I am a highly motivated, resilient, and dependable Registered Nurse with experience in Perioperative and Emergency Department settings. As an active military reservist with over 26 years of service, I bring strong leadership, communication, and time management skills to every role. I take pride in being a positive, collaborative team member with a proactive, can-do attitude. I am currently seeking casual opportunities to further develop my clinical expertise and contribute to high-quality patient care.
