Summary

I am a dedicated and accomplished Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (DMS) with nearly three years of hands-on experience at Torrance Memorial Hospital, including over one year as an intern. I was offered a full-time position at Torrance while completing my DMS program. I have experience in performing scans on inpatients and outpatients, as well as assisting physicians with procedures such as thoracentesis, paracentesis, biopsies, prostate markers, and ultrasound-guided Interventional Radiology and in the Operating Room. I am recognized as one of the top technicians in Transcranial Doppler exams, and I received specialized training at Cedars-Sinai Hospital for Bubble studies. I have a commitment to a career in the medical field, honing my skills in a fast-paced, patient-centered environment. I am seeking a sonographer position closer to my home in Costa Mesa in a demanding, detail-oriented workplace that requires strong interpersonal skills. I am trilingual in English, Vietnamese, and Chinese, which enables effective communication with California’s diverse population. I am certified by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) in Abdomen (AB), Obstetrics (OB), and Vascular Technology (RVT). I am committed to work-life balance through hobbies including gardening, cooking, exercising, traveling, and camping.
