 Meet the Pres!

 

 Meet Cherri Guevara, MOKAN PANA President. Cherri is a graduate of the University of Santo Tomas in the Phillipines.  She is longtime APSAN member originally as a member of PANAC while working at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles.  Marriage and relocation brought her to Missouri where she has worked for seven years in the PACU and Outpatient Pavilion at North Kansas City Hospital.

 This year she will be leading us in refining our strategic plan with the goal of achieving the Gold Leaf Award for our component.

In this picture, we caught her using her excellent marketing skills to support our component-in this case selling raffle tickets at a national conference :)
