Throughout my academic career in Public Health, I have established a solid foundation for understanding the broader aspects of eye health diseases and preventing vision loss in communities. My coursework has provided me with the knowledge to diagnose visual disorders and provide ocular eye care to people of all ages. I have actively volunteered at local vision clinics while working alongside optometrists and healthcare administrators. I am experienced in the full range of patient care which includes performing vision screening, assessing patient contact lenses, and administering medical documentation. My experiences in both the medical and administrative aspects honed my interpersonal skills to communicate effectively with healthcare professionals and ensure that all patients have access to quality eye care services. My desire to become a clinical research coordinator stems from the ability to coordinate and develop research projects focusing on eye conditions and treatments. I'm fascinated by the prospect of collaborating with eye care professionals to analyze visual eye disease patterns and coordinate eye treatments to promote eye health for all patients.Aside from my professional pursuits, I enjoy gaming, building keyboards, and bullet journaling. My enthusiasm for bullet journaling enables me to track my own progress and plan healthier lifestyle changes.
