What's New in HMIS

Congratulations to our new 2018-2019 HIMS Club Officers

 

Kamaryn Hunt

President

Kamaryn Hunt

Hello fellow HIMS classmates! I am Kamaryn Hunt, a 19-year-old native of Virginia Beach, Va. I am running for the HIMS President position and I am counting on your vote! I am a Junior here at SUNO and this is my second year in the HIMS department. I would like to help increase our HIMS department by educating other students due to the fact that they are unaware of our department and may be able to join us!


Giovanna Batiste

Vice-President

Giovanna Batiste

I’m Giovanna Batiste, commonly known as Gia. I am recently married and the mother of two. I’m currently a Junior, though SUNO classifies me as a Senior. I maintain a 3.0 GPA. I previously attended Herzing University where I graduated with honors receiving my associates in Insurance Billing and Coding. I currently work for Volunteer of America as a Support Specialist advocating for mental and behavioral clients. I’m sure many of you have witnessed me advocate in our HIMS courses, now allow me the honor of Advocating as your Vice President.


Nia Badon

Secretary

Nia Badon

My name is Nia Badon, I'm currently a senior HIMS student. I like to know what's actively going on in HIM profession by attending the local GNOHIMA meetings. Last year I attended the LHIMA Convention and I was the speaker to present SUNO school report with a short PowerPoint presentation of our achievements in our HIM department. I also represented SUNO at the healthcare exposition last year at UNO. Lastly, I've also maintained a 3.0 GPA each semester from starting the program.


Kierstin Gary

Treasurer

Kierstin Gary

My name is Kierstin Gary. I’m 25 years old.  I’m originally from Indianapolis, IN. I’ve lived in Metairie area for 6 years now. I transferred to SUNO in Fall 2017 after graduating from Delgado with my Associate General Studies Degree. I am a senior. I am a mother of a 15-year-old and 3-year-old. I’ve always wanted to be in healthcare and I’m good with technology, so I found HIMS. I want to eventually be a Director of Health Information Exchange, but I would like to start off in Coding or Release of Information Specialist.
