Summary
I have been in the echo world for 18 years. The last 11 years I have trained/cross trained individuals to obtain their registry with the ARDMS as well as full time scanning. I enjoy educating individuals to not only simplify aspects of the echo field but also to continue to perfect current skills. I have a deep knowledge base of cardiac anatomy and physiology and an eagerness to educate which not only allows me to perform these duties, but enjoy the work as well.
