 My name is Rajan Shah and I am from Nepal. I came to the United States in 2017 and did my bachelors in Radiologic Technology at St. Cloud State University, Minnesota. Also, I did my 2-year clinicals at Sanford School of Radiologic Technology. After graduating from the Sanford program in 2021, I did my masters in basic biomedical science at University of South Dakota. Currently, I work as a night tech at Sanford Diagnostic Radiology, Sioux Falls. I chose to join SDSRT because I believe working as a radiologic technologist in the state of South Dakota, it is my responsibility to be a part of the team which aims to advance the profession of medical imaging. I am also excited to work with rad tech students in the state of South Dakota and aware them about the benefits and opportunities of being a member of SDSRT. SDSRT is also a great platform for students and technologists to learn leadership skills and share each other's perspective on how to improve image quality, patient care, and radiation safety. I look forward to meeting you all.

I partook in athletics and was involved with the local community. I spent summers decorating the Corn Palace and helping run events such as the fall harvest festivals and various concerts and college sporting events at the Corn Palace. I had the opportunity to do my clinical year in the Rapid City area. I had a great experience, getting to know and working with many techs at multiple Monument Health facilities. I enjoy working in Radiology and look forward to being involved and meeting many more professionals.

I work at the Cancer Care Institute at Monument Health or previous known as Regional Health in Rapid City, SD as a Radiation Therapist since 2002. I have enjoyed my time with the SDSRT from the people I have met to the knowledge I have learned about the SDSRT and ASRT. When I am not working I enjoy the ranch life of horses and cattle plus the wide open space to run. I truly encourage members to get involved.

After completing her training, as a Radiation Therapist her firstjob in therapy was at a hospital in Grand Forks, ND as Chief Radiation Therapist. In 1997 after a devastating flood she relocated to Brainerd, Minnesota to establish the radiation therapy department for Minneapolis Radiation Oncology (MRO). Then in September of 2000 another opportunity presented for her to start a new cancer program for Avera in Mitchell, South Dakota. She successfully started the program and received an Outstanding Achievement award from the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer for the program in 2003. Her career at Avera expanded to include the Yankton, SD cancer program and she was asked to start a Palliative Medicine in 2018. Palliative Medicine quickly became her new passion. She had the opportunity to apply and received two federally funded grants from Human Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) which is what she is currently doing.

“The best part of the job is the fantastic people I work with, they keep me energized and continually improving. “
