Summary

Working at a Level One trauma center has given me great knowledge and experiences that has improved my skills as a Technologist. I have worked with all levels and types of patients; from newborns to geriatrics, to inmates and bariatric patients. Trauma has expanded my skills to think out side the box with patient positioning and care in order to obtained quality imagines. On night shift, working with a small group of personal, I have become reliable to complete tasks on my own or to help others accomplish theirs. I have excelled at communication and rapport-building skills. I am perficient with mobile x-ray, c-arm, o-arm, fluoroscopy and, room equipment to produce diagnostic imaging. As a junior level technologist I have been tasked with QA/QC with mine and my co-workers images and I meticulous check to make sure that our work meets high expectations and diagnostic quality.

As a travel technologist, I have gain a great amount of experience with adapting to new work environments, softwear, equipment, and staff. I utilize my skills to help the team to achieve and maintain excellent results in imaging and in the department.
