With 16 years of experience as a nurse with UNC Health, I have dedicated most of my career to providing care to patients, particularly those facing GI and head and neck cancer challenges. I gained invaluable hands-on experience caring for critically ill individuals as a bedside nurse for the first 14 years of my career, allowing me to develop a deep understanding of their needs and challenges.
Throughout my journey to become an oncology nurse navigator, I have worked to refine my communication and organizational skills, recognizing the pivotal role they play in guiding cancer patients through their treatment. Effective nurse navigation involves providing unwavering support and coordinating seamless care across a spectrum of health care providers and services.
