[Virtual Presenter] I currently work as a Lead MRI Technologist at Bon Secours Mercy Health in Portsmouth, Virginia. My daily responsibilities include creating the monthly staff schedule, providing oversight for the MRI department, addressing and resolving departmental issues, ensuring smooth patient care flow, and obtaining high-quality diagnostic images. I take pride in assisting patients in their healthcare journey, helping them feel better, and contributing to patient diagnosis through high-quality imaging. These experiences have instilled in me a passion for patient care and a desire to continue growing professionally. To further develop my skills and knowledge, I am exploring options for a Master's degree in Healthcare Administration, with the long-term goal of becoming a Hospital Administrator. I am excited about the prospect of improving healthcare systems and patient outcomes on a larger scale..
