My cultural background has instilled in me values that directly influence how I approach my work. Growing up in a community that emphasized resilience, respect, and collective responsibility taught me to see challenges not just as obstacles, but as opportunities to support others. These lessons shape the way I collaborate with colleagues and patients, ensuring that I listen actively, honor diverse perspectives, and adapt to individual needs.
Because my heritage places a strong emphasis on education and service, I carry those principles into professional settings by prioritizing skill-building, empowerment, and long-term growth. I view each interaction as a chance to bridge differences and foster inclusivity. This cultural lens helps me create environments where people feel valued, supported, and motivated to reach their potential. Ultimately, my background strengthens my credibility and enriches the impact I bring to patient care and team collaboration.
My academic journey reflects both dedication and achievement. I am graduating from Bryant and Stratton College with a 3.6 GPA, demonstrating consistent excellence and a strong commitment to learning. During my studies, I was honored with an Excellence Award, recognizing not only high performance but also my passion for applying knowledge in meaningful ways.
This foundation prepared me for a career centered on service and skill-building. My coursework emphasized rehabilitation, patient care, and collaborative practice, which directly shaped my approach as a medical billing and coding specialist. Beyond grades and honors, my education instilled values of perseverance, empathy, and professionalism—qualities I carry into every role.
By combining academic success with practical training, I developed the ability to translate theory into practice, ensuring that my work supports both individual growth and community well-being.
I am Katlyn Perry, 29 years old, and a dedicated professional committed to supporting others through education, rehabilitation, and skill-building. My academic achievements, including graduating from Bryant and Stratton College with a 3.6 GPA and receiving an Excellence Award, reflect both perseverance and passion for learning. As a medical billing and coding specialist, I am going to be focused on helping individuals regain independence and confidence, tailoring care to meet unique needs.
My cultural background has shaped my values of empathy, resilience, and collaboration, which guide how I approach teamwork and patient care. I believe in creating inclusive environments where every person feels valued and supported. With experience in multidisciplinary collaboration and a strong foundation in service, I bring both professionalism and compassion to my work.
This portfolio represents not only my skills and accomplishments, but also my commitment to making a meaningful impact in the lives of others.
I am 29 years old, and I am graduating in March of 2026 with an Associate's
Degree in Medical Billing and Coding. I have primarily worked in factories and
retail settings, including Rite Aid, Meijer, and an Admiral gas station. I can
provide valuable skills, including my writing, communication, and computer
skills, which will be helpful for the position I am applying for with my resume. I
am trustworthy, understanding, and compassionate with people, and I believe
I would be a great asset to any team I join. I hope I end up being considered
for a job.
