My name is Ashlyn Pinard, and I am a motivated and dependable college student currently pursuing a degree in Radiology at Northern Essex Community College. I have hands on experience working as a CT and MRI Tech Aide at Lowell General Hospital, where I have developed experience supporting patient care, maintaining safety protocols, preparing imaging areas, and working alongside technologists in fast paced clinical environments. In addition, my experience as a Patient Care Associate in an Allergy & Immunology office has strengthened my communication, organization, and ability to interact professionally with patients and healthcare staff. My background in customer service has further developed my ability to remain patient, attentive, and composed while assisting people with different needs. I take pride in being organized, reliable, detail-oriented, adaptable, and a quick learner who works well both independently and as part of a team. I am passionate about patient care and radiologic technology and look forward to continuing to expand my clinical knowledge and skills as I pursue a career in healthcare.
