2.) What do you like most about your job?
That is hard to nail down to just one answer. I enjoy negotiating the purchase of our various imaging systems, planning and overseeing the installation of the various imaging equipment we have at OrthoCarolina, and radiation safety compliance as being the Radiation Safety Officer at OrthoCarolina. I honestly believe my greatest sense of achievement is when the OrthoCarolina radiologic technologists contact me with an issue and I’m able to help them get back to providing excellent patient care.

I wear a multitude of hats at OrthoCarolina. I oversee the daily operations of X-ray, ultrasound, EMG, fluoroscopy, Cone Beam CT scanner, state and federal radiation safety compliance, the aforementioned equipment maintenance and repairs, secure OC staff access to the various outside agencies, negotiate equipment purchases and maintenance contracts, oversee clinical PACS operations, assist the IT department. All of this before 9:00 AM!!
4.) What are some of your outside hobbies or interests?
I love to scuba dive, being outdoors enjoying nature and I also enjoy a good movie.
5.) What's your favorite movie?
I really don’t have a single favorite movie. I enjoy drama, comedy and lots of action in a movie plot.
