Summary

Being a highly motivated team member who is very passionate about my ability to make a difference in people's lives through the delivery of patient-centered care, I cannot wait to apply all of my learnings gained whilst completing my bachelor of Nursing.

Having had the opportunity to work with like-minded individuals and multi-disciplinary teams with the same beliefs and attitude has only motivated me more to pursue a career in the health industry.

I strongly believe that I have all of the skills and the mindset required to be very successful in this role.
