I have been the director of clinical education of the professional phase (junior and senior years) of the University of Mary Respiratory Therapy Program since 2002. I worked as a staff therapist specializing in adult and neonatal intensive at St. Alexius Medical Center from 1999-2002. I am currently pursuing my master's degree in college teaching at the University of Mary. My office is at the St. Alexius Medical Center campus where the physical facilities for the professional phase of the program are located.
