*********.****@*****.*** - 417-***-****
I am currently looking to work as a radiation therapist. I am licensed through the ARRT in both radiation therapy
and radiography. I hold two bachelor of science degrees, and an associate of science degree. My radiation
therapy clinical experience was through nine different radiation oncology departments through-out Omaha and
Lincoln, Nebraska. I have worked with several different types of equipment and software. I am professional and
compassionate and can exhibit sensitivity, flexibility, and appropriate aggressiveness in all types of situations.
I am willing to accommodate traveling positions.
WORK EXPERIENCE
Radiation Therapy Student
University of Nebraska Medical Center - Omaha, NE - August 2012 to August 2013
Responsibilities
As a student, I rotated through nine different clinic sites, to include the technology of Varian, Siemens, and
Elekta linear accelerators and special procedures with a GammaKnife and CyberKnife. I am also experienced
in CT simulation, IMRT, 3DCRT, Brachytherapy, and IGRT procedures. Familiar with ARIA, Lantis, and Mosaiq
radiation oncology software.
Accomplishments
While I was enrolled in this program, I accomplished being invited to the Alpha Eta Allied Health Honor
Society, and graduating with the University of Nebraska Medical Center's Academic Excellence Award. I was
consistently a top performer in my class and was told by clinical coordinators that I provide a high level of
competent, patient care skills.
Skills Used
I demonstrated professionalism, and compassion for this career. I was allowed the opportunity to act as a
therapist and to think on my own in real life situations. I'm most proud of the high quality patient care that I
provided, frequently patients would ask therapists where I was, if I was not in clinic. I enjoyed being able to
use my knowledge to help my patients while making an impact of their life.
Radiologic Technologist
Freeman Health System - Joplin, MO - November 2011 to May 2012

emergency department. Attained knowledge of multiple vendors of machines and soft-wares used in radiology
health care: GE, Siemens, Toshiba, Phillips, AGFA CR readers, STAR, Omnicell, PACS, EPIC, Meditech, and
Centricity.
Accomplishments
I made an impact by starting the opportunity for all technologists to get properly trained in all areas of the
hospital to provide the highest quality of team work and patient care skills. I created this opportunity in the short
time that I worked there. I left this position because I was graduating from Missouri Southern State University
and leaving the area for radiation therapy school.
Skills Used
I demonstrated organizational, critical thinking, and time management skills by determining the order of priority
of exams.
