Summary

Dedicated ICU nurse with a strong foundation in high-acuity care, leadership, and rapid response in a Level 1 Trauma Center. Through roles as a preceptor, charge nurse, and Critical Response Nurse, I have developed sound clinical judgment, adaptability, and a deep commitment to collaborative, patient-centered care. I am drawn to the University of Scranton's CRNA program for its Jesuit values, academic rigor, and emphasis on ethical, compassionate service. I aim to advance as a nurse anesthetist who delivers safe, evidence-based care while upholding the dignity and humanity of every patient.
