Education
General Educational Development Diploma(June 4, 1996)
Huntsville Hospital EEG Technologist Training Program (2002)
In the EEG technologists training I received extensive training in neurophysiology, to identify normal and abnormal electrical activity in the central, nervous, autonomic and peripheral nervous systems. By recording electrical patterns throughout these systems, I can provide valuable data that a physician will use to diagnose and treat conditions such as headaches, dizziness, seizure disorders, strokes and degenerative brain disease.
