I am a dedicated healthcare professional with over a decade of experience as a medical practitioner, including valuable years working in obstetrics and gynecology and providing mental health support. Currently, I am pursuing Healthcare Administration and Personal Support Worker (PSW) training in Canada to expand my knowledge and skills in delivering client-centered care. My background includes roles as a medical officer, mental health counselor, and community outreach coordinator, where I developed strong skills in patient care, advocacy, and working with diverse populations.

Fluent in English, Yoruba, and Igbo, I pride myself on being culturally sensitive and professional in all my interactions. With certifications in First Aid, CPR, and workplace safety, I am passionate about improving the well-being of individuals and communities.
