CMA Certified Medical Assistant (742150)

Have over 35 years of work experience and a strong desire to increase knowledge, and would be an asset to any team. Within the last year, I started a kindness rock program at a medical clinic. The small jester of giving a patient a painted rock showed them so much support and care, they left knowing that we actually care and they felt that. 

I volunteer at a church to feed the homeless and contribute to the "clothes closet". This ensures once a week that they are getting clean clothes and three hot meals.
