Summary

I have work in the Fiji Ministry of Health and Medical Services under the Fiji Centre for Disease Control (Fiji CDC) institute for the past 9 years. I have enjoyed serving in the public health sector because it has allowed me to serve and interact with the community directly. I enjoyed the feeling of having a great impact and making a difference in someone’s life that requires health services, but most of all I’m passionate about serving the community that is vulnerable to communicable disease. I’m a compassionate worker offering exceptional planning, prioritizing and goal-setting abilities to achieve the best outcome, accompanied by practical experience in providing customer-driven care and services.
