Kelly Stringer BSRT (R) I graduated from NPC Radiologic Technology Program in 2010. I continued my education at University of Arkansas Fort Smith, and received a Bachelor of Science in Imaging Sciences- Management in 2014. After graduating in 2010, I began working at Baptist Health – Hot Spring County, where I am still employed part-time as a Radiologic and CT technologist. I realized that teaching and helping students during their clinical rotations at BH-HSC was my passion. In 2014, I returned to NPC to serve as an adjunct/part-time clinical instructor, and am so excited to now be a full time clinical instructor for NPC. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter, which will probably be somewhere in a basketball gym! I also love crafting and my dogs, Fisher and Coco.
