Throughout my nursing education and diverse clinical experiences, I have developed a strong foundation in neonatal and pediatric care, patient education, and critical thinking. My hands-on training in the NICU, pediatrics, and obstetrics has strengthened my passion for supporting infants and families during vulnerable times. With a balance of compassion, diligence, and a calm presence under pressure, I am eager to begin my nursing career in a NICU environment where I can continue to grow and make a meaningful impact.
