About Tina
I've been in my field for 3 years as a dietary technician at Vandalia Health's Women's and Children's Hospital. My work includes making sure patients get the proper diets, delivering trays, working the tray line, and helping with Meals on Wheels for seniors. I previously worked in medical claims, as a school cook for 8 years, and as an administrative assistant scheduling appointments for mental health patients. I have a certificate in medical billing and coding from Ultimate Medical Academy and training in medical assistance from OIC. I aspire to become a certified dietitian.
