"If you need something done, give it to a busy person." I am that busy person, and I get stuff done! I thrive on checklists, action items, details, and organization. And my Jack-of-all-trades experience makes me a great problem solver. As a singer, I started out with aspirations of becoming a music teacher and performer, but found I loved designing the concert programs and organizing the shows, so I got a degree in Digital Arts/Graphic Design. I loved my time at IBM in the Industrial Design Department designing Production Artwork for servers, and then found I loved the technology I was working on, so I got a degree in IT with an emphasis in Design. I still had a bit of a teaching bug, so I got another degree in Educational Psychology. I wound up putting all of my skills to work as a Practice Manager for a three-location orthodontic practice where I handle HR, IT, Marketing, Accounts Receivable/Payable, Payroll, Benefits Administration, Bookkeeping, Healthcare Regulations and Financial Tracking/Planning for the business. I was also interested in the X-ray technology used in our offices, so (you guessed it) I took courses and sat for/passed the Limited Scope X-ray Operators exam. I'm a lifelong learner! I love taking a look at things and finding ways to make the experience better/easier/faster for our patients, our staff, and our doctor. When I'm not doing something interesting like developing a Radiation Quality Assurance Program, or giving annual HIPAA or OSHA presentations to our staff, I enjoy singing, camping, and traveling around the country visiting our National Parks with my family (another checklist I have going...).
