Summary

As a dedicated and compassionate master’s in nursing student with a strong academic foundation, I am passionate about providing high-quality, patient-centered care in critical care settings such as the Operating Room (OR), Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and other critical care units. I am committed to leveraging my clinical skills, critical thinking, and ability to work in high-pressure environments to improve patient outcomes. With a focus on safety, quality care, and collaboration, I aim to contribute to a multidisciplinary healthcare team that supports patients and their families through complex medical situations. I aim to continue growing as a nurse by applying evidence-based practices and delivering compassionate care in settings that demand precision, teamwork, and continuous learning.
