Ray began his career with SDMI in 2000 as a UNLV student, 3 years later he was promoted to MRI Lead and 2 years after that was promoted to Chief MRI Technologist. Ray has been crucial in the implementation of new equipment, conducted MRI safety trainings for SDMI employees as well as for local fire departments, and true to the spirit of the SDMI mission has always been the go-to resource for assisting patients with any special MRI needs. He is known for always making himself available to help and that combined with his over 20 years of SDMI experience is what makes him the perfect Technical Director. Transitioning from supporting solely MRI to being the resource for all 10 modalities seems daunting for most, but Ray is excited to take it all on. "I am embracing the challenge and look forward to continuing to keep SDMI a safe space for both our employees and patients.” said Ray about his promotion.
