With a diverse background spanning various industries, I am a dynamic individual ready to take on new challenges in the healthcare field. As an internal auditor, I honed critical thinking, complex problem solving, and effective communication and reporting skills. For over two decades, I have combined a passion for creativity and love of entrepreneurship to run a successful photography business. As a sole-proprietor l learned the true meaning of a relentless work ethic, wearing many hats and quickly adapting to an ever-changing industry while efficiently absorbing new knowledge and refining my skills to provide an excellent client experience. Beyond entrepreneurship, I've embraced part-time roles as a fundraiser and event planner, which have sharpened my organizational prowess and attention to detail. Additionally, my caregiving journey for a child with multiple medical diagnoses has taught me compassion and resilience, further fueling my desire to enter the healthcare field. My varied experiences have prepared me for the changes and challenges that lie ahead as I pursue a nursing degree. I understand the importance of empathy, adaptability, and the ability to maintain composure in high-pressure situations. As I embark on this career transition, I am eager to leverage my skill set to make a meaningful impact in the lives of patients and their families.
