How many of you saw yourselves going into healthcare when you were a kid? I feel like the only person in my office who didn't. So many stories of dreaming about being a doctor or a nurse and I always wanted to be a marine biologist. What was your childhood dream job?

I didn’t want to go into healthcare at all and kind of ended up in this field by chance. I wanted to be a writer when I was a kid.

I’ve been in healthcare for 25 years. When I was a kid I was great at a lot of things but didn’t know what I wanted to do. I had surgery my junior year of college and became interested in the operating rooms. Long story short I worked in the cancer center on a contract for my first job out of college doing data collection for retrospective breast cancer study. Then I got a MS Computer Science and went to work in Pathology IS, Periop IS, and several other procedural areas.

I like being part of the circle of care.

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.
