Name: <\/strong>Grace Handleman<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Title:  <\/strong>GME Education Program Coordinator III<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hometown: <\/strong>Omaha<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talk about your job and what you like best about it:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am the coordinator for the Urologic Surgery residency program, the Diabetes, Endocrinology, and Metabolic Medicine Fellowship Program, and soon-to-be coordinator for the Pediatric Urologic Surgery Fellowship Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have the unique opportunity to work in both the surgery and medicine worlds. It can certainly be chaotic, but I\u2019m so grateful for everything that I have been able to learn over the past (almost) two years. I started as a medical receptionist in the oral surgery clinic in 2016, where I was first exposed to the academic side of medicine. Before taking on my current role, I worked as an office associate in gastroenterology and loved working with their fellows. So when I was offered a chance to work directly with residents\/fellows myself, I was thrilled. What I love about my job is that you wear a variety of hats as a coordinator, and each day is a little different from the last. One day you\u2019re writing call schedules, and the next you\u2019re playing air traffic controller with Zoom breakout rooms for virtual recruitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a great community of support in the GME world, and I am delighted to be a part of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

List three things people may not know about you:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

— I have two kids, a 6-year-old daughter, Frankie, and 1-year-old son, Morris. We also have a dog named Doug and a cat named Thomas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

— I love pottery and have a pottery wheel at home<\/p>\n\n\n\n

— I love to cook and try new recipes\/foods. If not for the love of my nights and weekends, I would have loved to be a chef!<\/p>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
