I started coding in 2017. I worked for a company called All Types HIMs as a coder working on a variety of inpatient and outpatient projects. Over time, I felt as though I was not furthering my career and was stagnant in my position. It was then that I found MD connections and worked as an all-capture coder in November of 2021 until July 2024. That job taught me a lot when it comes to paying more attention to details since all all-capture projects can be tedious and loaded with codes that wouldn't commonly be captured with other styles of coding. After being with MD connections for 3 years, I was offered a position at Corrohealth, formerly Virtix health. I have been there for almost 2 years, and I am looking for something more. I have made it a goal to eventually grow to a strictly inpatient coder and auditor. Although I love what I do, I want to progress my career to something more challenging.

In 2007, I graduated from Gahr High School obtaining my high school diploma. After failing to find my career in traditional 4 year university, I turned to PIMA medical institute in 2012 where I earned my Occupational Associate's degree in animal science specializing as a Veterinary Technician. Following that, I started my family which ultimately moved my life in a different direction. I eventually found medical coding which allowed me to balance a healthy work and home life. I earned my Certified Coding Specialist certification in 2017 after attending AHIMA certified classes through CodeMasters inc. and have been working as a certified coding specialist (CCS) ever since.
