About Me

With over 16 years of experience in diagnostic medical sonography, I bring a deep passion for the field and a strong commitment to student success. I graduated in 2009 from Cuyahoga Community College and am credentialed by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) in multiple specialties, including OB/GYN, Abdomen (RDMS), Vascular (RVT), and Fetal Echocardiography (RDCS-FE). My career began in general ultrasound, but I quickly found my niche in maternal-fetal medicine, where I spent several years specializing in high-risk obstetrics. In 2021, I expanded my skill set to include pediatric and fetal echocardiography, with a focus on congenital heart disease a field I currently work in and continue to learn from every day. In parallel with my clinical work, I've spent the past 15 years teaching and mentoring sonography students, residents, and fellows. I've consistently been told that I excel at breaking down complex concepts into clear, understandable lessons. My teaching philosophy is centered around simplicity and visual learning I believe that when students can see how the anatomy and pathology come together, true understanding follows. I know how overwhelming the amount of information in sonography can be, especially when preparing for ARDMS boards. Having personally taken and passed the SPI, ABD, OB/GYN, RVT, and RDCS-FE exams, I know what it takes to succeed. I focus on helping students categorize pathologies and build confidence in their ability to master the material. Sonography isn't just a career for me it's a lifelong passion. I genuinely love every specialty, but my favorite subjects to teach are OB/GYN and fetal echocardiography. It's a privilege to help the next generation of sonographers develop their skills, grow their confidence, and fall in love with this profession as I have.
