Introducing our VP of Operations for Belize:
Gaynoll Murray-Arthurs
Originally from Belize where I trained and worked as a nurse. I live in the US where I work as a Certified Medical Lab Tech. I’ve spent all my adult life living in America, but enjoy giving back to my country. I founded a nonprofit, where I donate point of care instruments and teach public health nurses how to use them
