I orient new graduate clinical nurses and teach them the principles and practice of neonatal nursing. I engage in contributing to building a healthy unit culture and cultivate communicative and transparent relationships with members of the healthcare team.

Throughout my time as a college student, I worked at Sitting Made Simple and had the opportunity to provide child care to various families. I coordinated with parents to meet the children's needs, kept children engaged in activities, prepared meals, and drove children to and from school and extracurricular activities.
