My Story

Why I Built This Platform

After spending over 15 years working in Sterile Processing and Material Management, I noticed something that bothered me — many aspiring CS technicians were relying on scattered notes, outdated materials, or generic flashcards instead of a focused practice system built for sterile processing certification.

With a Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Administration and years of frontline experience across multiple healthcare facilities, I decided to build the resource I always wanted — a modern, standards-informed practice platform built specifically for sterile processing professionals.

Throughout my career, I've worked across all areas of the sterile processing department — decontamination, preparation and packaging, sterilization, and sterile storage. I've trained new technicians, managed instrument inventories, and worked directly with surgical teams. That depth of experience shaped every question on this platform.

Every question on Sterile Processing Prep is built around the official HSPA exam content outlines and widely used sterile processing references, including the HSPA Sterile Processing Technical Manual, ANSI/AAMI standards, and CDC guidance for disinfection and sterilization.

I built this platform to be free to start because I believe every technician deserves access to focused practice and a clear path into sterile processing certification.

My goal is simple: help CS technicians study with structure, build confidence, and know what to review next.
