Passionate About:

I absolutely adore caring for people and always have since I can remember. My passion truly sparked when I started working at an Alzheimer's and dementia assisted living home as an unlicensed assistive personnel. I then started working for NCSS as a caregiver. Soon enough I found myself in Nursing school and preparing to become a Registered Nurse. I never thought I would come to this moment in my life, and I never thought I would be able to experience this amazing opportunity. I also love traveling the world. I went to India this last summer and my passion for caring for people that are truly in need just grew larger, even if I didn't think that was possible. I'm excited to be able to help people in need. It makes my heart feel whole.

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
