Michelle Spryszynski

Hello!
My name is Michelle and I am 33. I have always been interested in the medical field, but I was far too squeamish to be a nurse or a doctor. I also have been chronically ill, primarily in my adult life, and I noticed that good techs (x-ray, ultrasound, assistants, etc...) can be the difference between a good and a bad experience in a medical setting. I set out to find something that interested me while also giving me the opportunity to comfort patients when they are nervous or scared. This led me to X-Ray.

I went to a great community college and spent 2 years working hard to achieve my goal and obtain my degree. X-Ray opens so many doors in the world of imaging, and it is something that I have come to enjoy.

Before going back to school (I have a degree in theatre), I was a nanny and a corporate office manager. It took years to decide what I wanted to do with my life, and it was not easy to go back to school in my 30s while struggling with ADHD, but I did it, and with the right support system and resources, you can do it too!
