It was 1995 when I first ventured into a dialysis clinic in Arizona and first became amazed by the dialysis process. My first role at that clinic was as a patient care technician, and it was a wonderful experience. Over the years, I have been able to work in patient care, bio-med, home therapies, and the vascular center. I have also been able to participate and present with organizations, including NANT and NKF. After working as a patient care technician, I continued my education to become an RN and a Nurse Practitioner. Currently, I practice in California rounding in outpatient dialysis centers. I also seek ways to stay involved and contribute to others in our nephrology community through education, compliance audits, and consulting clinics on how to better care for their patients. I hope to eventually have a small practice and continue to find ways to grow and contribute through education and quality care. Quote: "Don't look back; you’re not going that way!" ~ Mary Engelbreit
