An anatomy and physiology class at Bridgeport High School sparked Randi Stichka’s interest in pursuing a career in radiology. She landed her first job as a radiologic technologist at Morrill County Community Hospital in 2007, and five years later she became the Director of Radiology at MCCH, a position she still holds today. Stichka said she loves working in the radiology department, especially since she gets to fulfill her passion of helping people in the community she grew up in.
