Both my bachelor's (BSHS) and associates degree programs (CVT) were obtained here at the University. I was inducted into Lambda Nu and Phi Theta Kappa during my associates degree program. I have been an RCIS for 14 years. I worked at UPMC, as the education clinical coordinator. In that time gained a wide variety of knowledge in cardiac, peripheral vascular, and permanent devices. I was a part of implementing the PCI program, EP program, and the EVAR programs. I had the opportunity to be a guest speaker here at the college a few times, prior to being hired as full-time faculty. As for me personally, I am a mother of two beautiful girls and have been married for 17 years this year. We are enjoying camping, or should I say, glamping. We own two dogs who keep us on our toes. Lastly, I enjoy kickboxing, pickleball, and kayaking to stay healthy. I am very grateful for the opportunity and looking forward to a successful career with the University.
