Summary

As a registered vascular technologist (RVT) and a registered phlebology sonographer (RPhS), I perform vascular testing and imaging for patients with various vascular conditions and diseases. I have over twenty years of experience in this role, and I am certified by ARDMS and CCI as a vascular specialist.

I am also a certified international health coach (CIHC) and an integrative nutrition health coach (INHC) with over eight years of experience in helping clients achieve their health and wellness goals. I am passionate about empowering people to make positive lifestyle changes and improve their quality of life. I have completed my bachelor's degree in cardiovascular technology and diagnostic imaging from Thomas Jefferson University, and I am currently pursuing my master's degree in public health from Gwynedd Mercy University.
