Highlights

As a healthcare recruiter, helping doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals to achieve their career goals has been a most rewarding role. As such, I've impacted a number of medically underserved communities by attracting qualified healthcare providers to areas where quality medical care may have otherwise been unavailable.
