I began my career as a temporary Medical Assistant with Kaiser  Permanente. After my position ended, I was hired in the Admitting Department at St. Joseph’s and have been here for the last 25 years. My experience expanded to becoming the Unit Clerk all over the hospital, including the Surgery Department and the Emergency Department for the last 10 years. I loved my job in the emergency room and I felt it was my second home.  I enjoyed working with the providers, nurses and all ancillary staff in the emergency room.  I am excited to bring my experience to the GME EM program and continue to work aside our doctors and residents.  Outside of work, I try to spend as much time as I can with my two beautiful adult children and their families. Along with spending time with  my granddaughter, I do my best to stay active and I am a cheer coach for a pop warner team.
