On my first shift, I was amazed at the variety of patient presentations and the ability of the physicians on shift to be able to manage them and do procedures, as well as the collaboration they had with multiple other specialties and services. I ended up deciding after one shift I was going to pursue a career in emergency medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Education:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Medical degree, University of Nebraska Medical Center, 2021<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Memberships:&nbsp;<\/strong>American College of Emergency Physicians<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Three things people may not know about me:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I played baseball in college at a small school here in Nebraska.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In my free time, I enjoy doing lots of baking and trialing new recipes.
