Experience & Education

Cardiovascular sciences have fascinated me since childhood. This 3 year program

enabled me to move into the cardiac cath lab and electrophysiology lab. This

experience catapulted my knowledge and skills, readying me for a career in cardiac

rhythm management.

  Regis University - BS, Business Administration/Management

This education fulfilled my need for organization and appropriate function of the

administration that supports the departments in a hospital. It also gave me the ability to

take on the very important function of growing my department and listening to the

people who make it run: the staff! Their support and shared desire to put patients and

performance standards first make our department the best in the city!

  Stanford University - MSEE, Electrical Engineering

as the electromechanical treatment of heart failure. I enjoy educating patients about heart rhythm

problems as a result of damage, disease or genetic anomaly. My goals are to stay as current as

possible with this cutting edge technology designed to enhance and prolong quality of life!
