About Lori

I earned my master's in nursing at Azusa Pacific University, and I am currently an ANCC board certified Family Nurse Practitioner and advanced practice RN. Beyond my enthusiasm and dedication to nursing, I have a background in non-fiction creative writing and grant writing. My personal philosophy is rooted in empowering others and creating a positive perspective of life circumstances. I practice with a patient centered approach and my clinical focus in pediatric and family health made me passionate about patient education and taking the time to build trust with patients and their families. I have experience practicing independently with such skills as EMR proficiency: EPIC, Cerner, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, MediCat, health screening & preventative care, laboratory & radiology interpretation, immunizations & patient education, comprehensive suture training, advanced wound care management, complex and chronic disease management, among others. I'm looking for an environment that I can collaborate with my colleagues and have opportunities to learn. My practicum experience in urgent care strengthened my skill set in family practice procedures and I am dedicated to gaining more experience should the opportunity arise. I am seeking a full-time permanent position and am available to start upon hire. For further details of my qualifications, please find my resume attached. Thank you for your time and consideration of my application. I can be reached by phone or email.
