I am privileged to manage the UniVerse team of FSE's as well as work hands-on with the equipment when needed. This approach offers me the best chance to understand the needs of my engineers in the field as well as the desire to enrich their careers with the right tools, skills, and knowledge. Together we are propelling our service department to the highest level possible. Supplemental to that, I analyze automation productivity, repair trends, and parts lifespans to offer the best experience possible for our customers. Show less

Maintain, calibrate, and repair all medical equipment in our 125-bed hospital. Our Bio-med team was trained in every category of equipment, not just specializing in beds or monitors, to be able to cover each other during vacations or illness. I was sent to Phillips Healthcare to train on their vitals monitors and received in-house training for Alaris IV pumps and BodyGuard 545 epidural IV pump.
