Secretary – Dana Brimer

My name is Dana Brimer. I received my BSN from Indiana University in 2001 and have been in GI procedures for almost 20 years. I recently became the GI Clinical Educator over four GI Centers in the Indianapolis Metropolitan Area. I am currently a member of Sigma Theta Tau International, ASGE and am a Distinguished Nurse with IU Health. I became a member of SGNA and took my certification exam (CGRN) in 2018. I have attended several INSGNA Conferences throughout the years and became more active with INSGNA in 2022. I started my involvement on the Planning Committee for conferences and became the Secretary of INSGNA in 2023. I have recently attended The Regional Leadership Conference in Chicago to better understand the inner workings of SGNA while meeting with other Regional Chapters.

Treasurer – Deb Nesbitt

I graduated from Indiana Central University with an Associate Degree in Nursing and obtained my licensure in 1981. I then graduated in 1985 with a BSN also from Indiana Central University. I began working in GI at St Vincent Carmel Hospital from 2007-2013. joined SGNA in 2009 at which time became CGRN certified. Currently, I am employed at IU, where I worked as a motility nurse from 2013-2015, and since 2015 work at the Doug Rex Endoscopy Suites, an outpatient facility. I have served on the program planning committee, and as that chairperson. Currently I serve as the treasurer. I am grateful to have an organization that focuses on advancements in GI, furthering education of nurses and associates, and the networking of peers around the state.

I graduated from DePauw University in 2005 with a degree in Journalism. I worked in many industries but found a love for high end serving until deciding to follow in my mother’s footsteps and go back to school for Nursing. I graduated from the University of Indianapolis with a BSN in 2018. I earned my nursing stripes on Methodist’s Multi-Specialty Unit A6S which was a baptism of fire by quickly becoming the Night Charge before and after Covid. A lifelong friend saved me from the lonely spiral of floor nursing by introducing me to University Hospital’s GI/ERCP unit. I immediately fell in love with the multidisciplinary teamwork and advancing world of endoscopy. I truly love going to conferences and learning, then tying what I’ve learned to actual cases. I believe that my passion could be infectious when other GI nurses and techs realize the amazing procedures, we are all doing daily. I’d love to help INSGNA anyway I can to spread the excitement.
