About tori-alba

tori-alba specializes in Med Surg, SubAcute, Hospice, Infusion.

Started my career in health care as a dental hygienist. I later became a ultrasound tech and saw internal cancers. I decided to study radiation therapy and got a BRT. I went on enroll in an accelerated second degree BSN program and got my second bachelors in one year. Currently I am working full time as a utilization review nurse for the largest managed care organization in the world. I am also pursuing my MSN. I guess I just love education!
