About
My name is Omaira Lopez and I have been working in the healthcare field for the past 9 years. I have mostly worked in the field of laboratory science, in the areas of molecular diagnostics for infectious agents, general chemistry, hematology, urinalysis, coagulation and blood banking. In my career, I have learned valuable knowledge of medicine, the healthcare system, quality assurance and critical thinking.
My undergrad was in Biology with a minor in Chemistry, also finished a program to be certified in laboratory science. Recently, I finished my Master of Public Health at the University of West Florida. My aspiring direction is to work in the field of epidemiology or infectious disease and surveillance.
Although I have been living in the beautiful state of Colorado for the past 23 years; I am originally from El Salvador in Central America. I am fluent in Spanish, and have a great love for Latin cuisine, culture, health improvement of minority communities, and statistics.
I am a well-rounded individual with many interests including hiking, nature, painting, writing, poetry, creating in general and connecting with people of all cultures and walks of life. I am a firm believer in always creating a better version of yourself every day of your life. Therefore, no one ever peaks because there are many false summits along the way.
