Biographical Sketch: I am currently the program director for Invasive Cardiovascular Technology at Spokane Community College (SCC) in Washington State. I hold the RCIS credential. I have been working in the CV field since 1981 at several medical centers in the Pacific Northwest as a staff technologist as well as manager of Cardiology. I have published articles in Cath Lab Digest, Cardiac Cath Today, and Diagnostic Imaging and have contributed a chapter on IABP for DelMar publishers and one on Diagnostic and bilateral heart cath in Watson and Gorski’s Invasive Cardiology a manual for Cath Lab Personnel. I have enjoyed a role in public speaking for the SICP at multiple venues. I have had an opportunity to visit many cath labs in the USA as well as labs in Canada, Japan, Thailand and Brazil. There are many differences with a common denominator being the desire to help our patients.
