During my search for post-residency positions, I came across The University of Vermont Medical Center in Burlington, VT.
I had never been to Vermont but didn't look back once I visited for my interview. The lifestyle in Vermont promotes a work-life balance that keeps people healthy and happy. I take advantage of the year-round outdoor activities including biking, hiking, snowboarding, and water sports on Lake Champlain.
The outdoors and Vermont lifestyle combined with the opportunity to work with great staff in the pharmacy and emergency departments at an academic level 1 trauma center immediately drew me in. I am excited for the opportunity to be a part of the development and implementation of our PGY2 emergency medicine pharmacy residency program.
Burlington and The University of Vermont Medical Center provide a great place to practice, teach, and enjoy life. There is no better place to be!
