My Story
I began my career as a cardiovascular perfusionist in 2016, drawn to the unique combination of physiology, technology, and team-based care. In the operating room, I’ve had the privilege of supporting patients through some of the most complex and critical moments of their lives while working alongside surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, and other multidisciplinary team members.
Perfusion taught me to think in systems — to understand how people, processes, and technology intersect to achieve the best possible outcomes. It also gave me a deep appreciation for accurate information, clear communication, and efficient workflows, especially in high-pressure environments.
