I have been with the OSRT for 4 plus years and have served on the volunteer committee, marketing and sales committee, and the advocacy committee. I also participated in the leadership academy of 2020 for the OSRT. Each of these commitments taught me more and more about the Society and gave me an in-depth look into how desperately RTs need representation and community. This year I also served as a volunteer with the ARRT for their Cardiac Interventional Credentialing Committee. In this committee we examined and updated current guidelines and procedures for the CI Credential requirements that will be implemented in 2023.
I graduated from Shawnee State University in 2011 with my associate's of science in radiologic technology and 2012 with my bachelor's in healthcare administration.
