About

As an ECMO Coordinator, I oversee a dedicated team of specialists delivering extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy to critically ill adult patients experiencing cardiac and respiratory failure. With 20+ years of expertise as a respiratory therapist and ECMO specialist, I hold certifications from the American Association of Respiratory Care (AARC), Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) and (AmSECT) American society of extracorporeal technology, underscoring my commitment to excellence in this specialized field.

My mission centers on elevating the quality, safety, and innovation of ECMO care through rigorous research, protocol optimization, and interdisciplinary collaboration. I actively lead research initiatives focused on minimizing complications, refining clinical guidelines, and improving long-term patient outcomes. Passionate about knowledge-sharing, I mentor emerging ECMO specialists and partner with multidisciplinary teams to uphold evidence-based practices and advance industry standards.

Committed to lifelong learning, I continuously seek opportunities to enhance both personal and team performance, ensuring our practice remains at the forefront of ECMO advancements. My drive to innovate, educate, and deliver patient-centered care fuels my dedication to transforming outcomes in critical care medicine.
