What in your background shaped you to become the healthcare professional you are today? What has helped you the most? For me, I believe it was growing up on a farm and learning responsibilities. That made me a better person and a better pharmacist. What have you experienced in your past that has shaped you into who you are today?

Hmm, that is a really great question. I think I have always loved helping people, so that is what drew me to the field of healthcare. I have stayed because of the impact that I can visibly see that I am making in the world.

I will echo another commenter: Having great, supportive, loving parents means more than a lot of experiences. I am blessed to have been raised by great parents in a loving home. I will forever be grateful for that, and I try my very best to provide that for my children.

Advice when looking for Tech Consulting internships in Chicago or DC Metro? My GPA (3.04) has disqualified me from most major companies.

Have a great day!

My parents are visiting this week and mom and I made dinner tonight. Salmon is seasoned with Trader Joe’s ajika (a Georgian spice blend) and we just roasted the broccoli. The standout is the mejadara. It’s spiced rice and lentils with fried onions and is popular throughout the Middle East. We used the recipe from Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi’s cookbook, Jerusalem.

Hello! I’m currently a Administrative assistant now working at a major medical system in Baltimore. I’ve previously worked for 10 years as a medical assistant in a variety of specialties and primary care. Lately, I’ve been feeling a bit stuck as to my next step. Part of me want to go into management, another part is saying go get your RN, and the other is saying go into Social Work. I’m all over the place. Any ideas? And how would I be able to cross over to management?
