Author of "How to survive PA School: Advice from a former PA school professor"
I started journaling during the pandemic as a way to process the experiences that I had as a provider in a COVID intensive care unit. From there, my love of writing blossomed and I knew that I wanted to do more. As a writer with GoodRx, I get to learn more about topics in healthcare that are interesting and important to me while sharing that information with others through the creative process of writing.
