PLEASE WELCOME YOUR 2023 PediNeoSIG BOARD

The start of 2023 brings us hope and excitement as we embark on a fresh start to a new year! PediNeoSIG welcomes all of those who have chosen to provide quality vascular access to our most vulnerable population.

As your PediNeoSIG chair, I am honored to work with the following group of individuals who will serve on the Executive Leadership Council (ELC) of the special interest group. We look forward to seeing everyone this fall in Portland at our annual AVA conference.

KATIE FRATE, CHAIR

If I had to choose a career all over again, I would choose the same job! I love what I do for one of the most vulnerable populations.

When I am not at wokring, you would most likely catch me at Disney World with my kiddos!

ANGELA ALDERMAN, CHAIR ADVISOR

I am an avid cyclist and love the ocean!

When I am not working, I really enjoy gardening and baking!

JANE HARTMAN, DIRECTOR AT LARGE

I love the beach.

I am expecting my 4th grandbaby in August.

CHAT RAZDAN, BOD LIAISON

Originally from Baltimore and a proud UVA alum When not talking Care+Wear, I can be found cheering on all Baltimore and UVA sports teams!

I slowly run up and down the west side highway 5x a week and love maintaining an active lifestyle!

KACEY WISEMAN, CHAIR ELECT

A sunny day by the water with the people who mean the most to me is my ideal day.

I love live music, a show at Red Rock Amphitheater is a bucket list destination.

Reading an entire book in one sitting is a forgotten pastime.

LOUIS CIPRIANO, D-TEAM JR LIAISON

We’re expecting our 2nd child June 2023!

My birthday is Cinco de Mayo.

Most of my family lives on an island 1/5th the size of NYC.

DANIELLE BAKER, D-TEAM SENIOR LIAISON

I’m a boy mom. If you can’t find me im likely at soccer field somewhere in Texas.

If I have too much time on my hands, I’ll start a DIY home reno project that most likely would be cheaper if I hired a professional…..But I really like my nail gun.

NAEL MHAISSEN, BOD LIAISON

My name means “winner” in Arabic; My friends whom I play poker with strongly disagree!

I love cooking and dancing: not at the same time, although I have done both together before!
