MRI Technician

 

Activities
Carolina has played adult co-ed softball off and on for almost 20 years and would like to get back into the “swing” of that again eventually. She enjoys camping, swimming in lakes and rivers, roller skating, glamping, and sporting events, most notably attending Oakland A’s (RIP) games, including traveling to see new stadiums when they play.

Experience
Carolina worked her way up from front desk schedule coordinator to assistant manager at an Imaging facility here in the Bay Area between 2015-2023. In 2017, Carolina decided to give herself a promotion by going to school to be an MRI Technologist, starting her tech career in the same office that led her to love the field and where she completed her clinical studies. She has worked on a few different machines under different radiologists and physicians before settling into her home of the last two years, FDFAC.

Education
Gurnick Medical Academy 2018-2019. Venipuncture Certificate, ARRT (MR)

Motivation
Carolina’s goal and motivation in her career is helping to make the mundane or nerve-wracking experience of a medical procedure and visit go by easily and effortlessly. Carolina is a very empathetic person who wants her patients to be treated as she would want her family treated, fairly and with kindness.

Leisure Time
Carolina enjoys trying new restaurants and lounges, going to the movies, taking short weekend trips with friends to new places, hanging out with her family which includes 4 siblings and 12 nieces and nephews ranging from 10 months to 30 years old.

Future Goals
Carolina hopes to travel to some ancestral countries and continue adding to and crossing off interests on her bucket list. Career wise, she would like to fully manage a few small imaging facilities while taking the younger imaging generation under her wing and growing the field.
