What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a non-travel or remote opportunity where I can leverage my clinical documentation, PACS/McKesson technical applications, and workflow optimization expertise to stabilize imaging operations and support consistent diagnostic quality.

I am a highly accomplished, B.S.-degreed Diagnostic Medical Sonographer with over 18 years of clinical experience across major healthcare networks and high-volume medical centers. I focus on stabilizing and optimizing imaging department workflows while delivering uninterrupted, top-tier patient care.

I bring technical mastery in PACS Technology and McKesson Enterprise systems, along with deep operational expertise of GE and Philips ultrasound equipment. I adapt quickly to new PACS/EHR systems, configure system settings, adjust protocols, and apply advanced imaging architectures to maximize diagnostic quality under demanding volume conditions.

I build patient confidence and safety through rigorous pre-exam preparation, transparent explanations, diligent clinical observation, and HIPAA-compliant documentation. I also strengthen cross-functional operations by maintaining quality assurance records, pathology files, and post-operative correspondence, and by partnering closely with radiology teams and physicians to support accurate diagnoses.
