After working in neurology, I started working with the Academy of Internal Medicine for Veterinary Technicians as a charter member for the neurology subspecialty. This organization oversees and grants Veterinary Technician Specialty status to credentialed technicians who have pass the requirements and exam set forth by the academy for internal medicine. I have mentored colleagues, served and chaired on committees and supported the academy in other capacities over the years. I have also assisted in teaching labs and lectured at state and national conferences. I am presently the chair of the Nominations and Elections committee and coordinator for the Technician Case Report presentation portion of our national conference at ACVIM.
