My decision to work in healthcare has been a life long desire. There is no other career out there that not only is fulfilling personally, but also one in which I leave a legacy in each life I touch. Being a very active, healthy person in our community. I find it easy working along side others and in situations when others are finding themselves struggling i am often able to calmly find resolve. I thrive in complex care as I have acquired a multitude of skills and knowledge medically from some of our regions top surgeons and nurses. I am a worker, meaning I will not find any excuse to sit and do nothing. I remain detailed oriented no matter how long I am on a job. My friends often describe me as a very dependable, independent, strong, honest and loyal person as well as previous employers. The things you can learn simply by stopping to listen to a person you are working with is absolutely rewarding and also at the end of the day knowing you helped make their life a bit easier and a little less scary. One of my biggest achievements was when I got stopped in the halls at Legacy by a charge nurse who just wanted to let me know they had just finished an all staff meeting and quite a few nurses and Dr's were very impressed with my skill level. In that moment I knew i was on the right path doing the right thing the right way for the right reasons. That and at 40 I can still do a back flip. I do have a great sense of humor.
