Ever since I was a child, I've always been fascinated by the human body and its complexities. This fascination led me to complete my nursing degree from Johns Hopkins University, where I developed a deep appreciation for the science and art of nursing. Over the past 10 years, I've been fortunate enough to work for some incredible healthcare organizations such as the Mayo Clinic and Mount Sinai Hospital.

During my tenure at Mayo Clinic, I played a pivotal role in improving patient care procedures. Specifically, I led a team that implemented a new patient care strategy that decreased patient waiting times by 15%. I also spearheaded a project that improved nurse communication, resulting in a 10% increase in patient satisfaction scores.

While at Mount Sinai, I collaborated with a cross-functional team to implement a new electronic health record system. This new system helped to reduce medication errors by 20%. I also served as a mentor to new nurses, guiding them through the intricacies of patient care and hospital procedures.

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy volunteering at local community health fairs. I love educating people about health and wellness. I also enjoy hiking and yoga, which keep me grounded and remind me of the importance of holistic health.

I believe that great nursing is a combination of science, art, and compassion. And I strive to embody these principles in everything I do. If you're looking for a nurse with a track record of improving patient care and healthcare systems, I'd love to chat.

As a kid, I was always the one looking out for my younger siblings and cousins, bandaging scraped knees and comforting fears. These early experiences sparked my love for pediatric nursing, and I pursued this passion at the University of Pennsylvania's School of Nursing.

Since then, I've had the privilege of working at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. At Children's Hospital, I managed the care of up to 10 patients daily in the pediatric ICU, and was part of a team that decreased ICU readmission rates by 20%. At St. Jude's, I introduced a new pre-surgery preparation protocol for young patients which reduced pre-surgery anxiety by 30%.

I also strongly believe in continuous learning and professional development. I've attended several pediatric nursing conferences and have given presentations on pediatric pain management and patient-family centered care.

In my free time, I volunteer as a mentor for a local youth group, which allows me to nurture my passion for helping young people. Additionally, I love cooking and often host neighborhood bake sales to raise funds for pediatric cancer research.

If you're in need of a pediatric nurse who is experienced, compassionate, and committed to improving patient outcomes, feel free to reach out. I'd be happy to explore how I can contribute to your team.

My journey in nursing began when I joined the UCLA School of Nursing, where I not only learned the science of nursing but also the importance of empathy and good communication. For the past 20 years, I've worked in various healthcare settings including UCLA Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente Hospital.

At UCLA Medical Center, I supervised a team of 20 nurses and was instrumental in reducing hospital acquired infections by 25%. My time at Kaiser Permanente was equally rewarding as I led a project to streamline the discharge process, which resulted in a 15% improvement in patient discharge times.

Throughout my career, I've also mentored over 30 nursing students and new nurses, helping them navigate the challenging healthcare landscape. I've also co-authored several research papers on patient safety and quality improvement.

When not in the hospital, you can find me at the local animal shelter where I volunteer. This has taught me the importance of compassion and patience, qualities that I try to bring into my professional life as well.
