Experienced CRNA with strong background in most general adult cases (bariatric, spine, crani, GI, gyn, urology, ortho) and very strong background in emergency airways, OB and trauma/emergency cases.
I have worked night shift for the last 8 years which consisted mainly of trauma and OB.
I work well independently but have no problem asking for help when I need it.
I have not had much experience in regional anesthesia but it is definitely an area of interest.
