Certified by the NY Department of Health as a sexual assault forensic examiner (NYSAFE), Bryan continues to work towards being a patient advocate in all areas of the health care continuum. Bryan serves on medical center nursing committees to address emergency disaster preparedness, staffing shortages, and pediatric emergency care.

He has been a member of NYC Men in Nursing since 2018 and has served on the e-board as the Community Service Chair since 2020. He connected with MIN in hopes to network with other nurses in New York City but found a supportive group of murses, and their colleagues, who work to encourage each other and continue to educate each other as they navigate the nursing profession.

Bryan is a graduate of CUNY/Brooklyn College with a BS in nutrition and health sciences, and a graduate of SUNY/Downstate Health Sciences University with a BS in nursing, and is currently pursuing an MSN in nursing organizational leadership at CUNY/School of Professional Studies.
