My primary profession as an Emergency Medicine Physician Assistant provides me with ample opportunity to hone my speaking skills as I am daily placed in multiple situations where communication with patients and colleagues is needed to be conducted in a clear, concise, assertive, and assured manner. Whether dealing with good news or bad news, it is important to be able to not only personally, but professionally, communicate what is the problem, what we are doing to pro-actively correct the issue and what the next step of care is. My graduate studies background in Medicine and my highly technical undergraduate background in Biotechnology/Bio-engineering affords me experience and comfort with a broad array of words in appropriate usage, pronunciation, inflections and more. Additionally, my past educational experiences have allowed me to be comfortable (although not technically fluent) in conversational Spanish to include medical Spanish.
