Dear Hiring Manager,

Thank you for taking the time to review my application in response to a position I
saw April 12th on the Human Resources website for a Registered Nurse at
UCHealth Memorial Hospital Central.

I have attained my Associates of Science in Nursing at Miami Dade College with

licensure to be expected in July of 2018. Thus, I feel confident and passionate at
being skilled to begin the new graduate Registered Nurse position. My healthcare
experience reflects across over a year of multiple clinical exposures, yet my previous
work experience also emulates around a service centered for giving the best
memorable experience possible. People is my passion, so one thing that I’ve been
recognized by with nurses is my aptitude to build rapport with patients and their
families. I feel confident in the skills that I have learned and can be applied at
UCHealth, I also admire the drive that the hospital has at recognizing that medicine
is ever-changing and is motivated in doing what is right for the patient by using a
modern nursing field approach.

I am eager for the opportunity to meet with you to discuss how my qualifications
will be beneficial to UCHealth system at your earliest convenience. My daytime
phone number is (305) 586-7187, and my email is kc.larralde@gmail.com.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Kathlyn Larralde-Arauz
