Resume:

MacKenzie Heap

Registered radiation therapist through the ARRT and graduate of Bachelor degree,

JRCERT accredited schools.

*********.****@*****.*** - 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.
