Nursing Recruiter, Healthcare

Tell us about yourself.

I’m a traveling nurse of 9+ years who has been converted to recruiter a couple of years ago. I spend the summers at my cabin in Sitka, Alaska where I do EVERYTHING outdoors ie. fishing, hunting, hiking, backpacking, boating… all the things! I live in a cabin on an island so there is always plenty of stuff to keep me busy during my off time. I’ve got one dog who is the sweetest boy in the world and loves the island life in Sitka as well!

What do you love about your position?

I love helping my fellow nurses navigate through the traveling nursing world using the information I’ve learned as a traveler myself. Being the recruiter I always wanted as a traveler is my passion!

What drives you at work?

Helping to make a difference for not only patients by helping to provide facilities with staff but also helping nurses have amazing and fulfilling experiences.

What makes Uniti Med a great destination for potential travelers?

Uniti Med as a whole has so much knowledge and experience in the traveling industry. It is very progressive for a travel company, we have great benefits that other companies don’t always offer which is really nice for contract staff. We are extremely traveler-focused and love the relationships that we build with them.

What differentiates you from other recruiters?

Uniti offers benefits that and perks that I never came across in my years as a traveler. Uniti is VERY progressive in the perks offered and truly values nurses and everything we go through. We have a great footprint in the facilities we help staff and can provide great opportunities for upcoming travel assignments.

What differentiates you from other recruiters?

I can reflect on my experiences at the bedside and relate to everything traveling nurses are experiencing. I’m 100% committed to my travelers and will always be there to advocate for and help guide them in their journey.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?

That’s a tough one! There is a lot of the world I have yet to experience but I would love to fish for golden dorado in Argentina next!
