Summary
I've been a Radiologic Technologist for Geisinger Medical Center for almost 17 years. I have trained on and worked in almost every available specialty at my disposal. I'm currently looking to take that knowledge and combine it with everything else I have learned while working in the emergency department over the last 28 months. I am currently applying for Clinic Level 3. My biggest goal is to find ways to streamline services between emergency medicine patients and radiology. I feel the 28 months and countless hours I put in between both departments will put me at a great position to do so.
