Biography
In 1996, I graduated from Thomas Jefferson University with a Bachelor's degree in Medical Imaging. I spent the next twenty years working as a Sonographer at Ephrata Community Hospital. It is there where I had the opportunity to manage the department and also serve as a clinical educator. In 2009, I returned to Thomas Jefferson University and earned a Master's degree in Radiologic Science. I moved into education and have been employed with PA College for the last ten years. I started as the Clinical Coordinator of the Diagnostic Medical Sonography program (DMS). I currently serve as the Program Director for the DMS program and the Vascular Sonography program.Registrations/Certifications
