I am a Cardiovascular Interventional Technologist with RCIS and BCLS certification, seeking a position in
an excellence and team oriented environment, that produces remarkable results around a core focus of patient-centered care.
Bringing with me a wide range of experience, I learn quickly and adapt to the needs and methodologies at hand. Teaching and

with the insertion of pacemakers, ICD's, bi-ventricular ICD's, performing electrophysiology studies, and RF/Cryo Ablations
using the BioSense Webster Carto Mapping System. Certified with Mynx, Angio-Seal, and Exoseal closure devices, and
support Perclose deployment. Dually trained as a Cardio-Graphic Technician, I operate at the super user skill level with WITT,
and at the user level with the Mac Lab, and Syngo Dynamic monitoring/recording hemodynamic systems. In addition, I was a
CCL PACS Coordinator for the Optimed system for 4 years, provided transitional support to a new PACS system installation,
