I have been an RN since 1999 in the operating room, both as a circulator, a scrub, and Perioperative Clinical Educator. My experience ranges from Level 1 trauma to outpatient surgery center. I have experience in the surgical specialties of cardiac, general, gynecology, orthopedic (spine) plastics, and urology. I also have assisted with the implementation of the DaVinci Robotic program in the specialties of cardiac, gynecology, and urology.
I have been employed in Scottsdale, AZ since August 2009, where I perform the duties of scrub and circulator. I was promoted to
Clinical Nurse Educator in April 2015 for Shea and Piper Perioperative Department (OR, pre-op, PACU, Endoscopy, and CSPD). In this position I educated staff in the newest technologies and remain current with policies and procedures. I also reviewed and updated policies for the hospital system. I was also the Laser Safety Officer for the Scottsdale campus. I have also successfully concluded several AORN: 101 Perioperative Programs. I was a member of the New Technology and Value Analysis Team (VAT). As mentioned above, I have returned to the OR as of February 2019. My surgical experience began in 1994 as a private scrub, after which I attended a surgical technology program. In 1999, I graduated with an ADN; in 2012 I earned my BSN followed by my MSN-Leadership in 2014, both from Grand Canyon University. I also have CNOR certification and am a member of AORN.
