I am an enthusiastic, compassionate, and motivated final-year nursing student with a strong commitment to delivering safe, evidence-based, and person-centred care. Guided by integrity, diligence, and empathy, my goal is to contribute meaningfully within a respected healthcare organisation that values collaboration, continuous learning and excellence. With hands-on experience in aged care and a range of clinical placements—including mental health, community, oncology, and cardiac—I am driven to support diverse populations and improve health outcomes. I aspire to grow within a team dedicated to patient advocacy and holistic care.
