Tell us why you like your job and position.
“The best part of my job is THE KIDS! I love that working in pediatrics means that all in one day, I could be calming a newborn, giggling with a toddler and discussing life goals and dreams with an 18-year-old. I love being able to meet each patient where they are at and providing a space where the patient and family feel comfortable, welcomed and well taken care of.”
What do you like about working in this field/department?
“Besides engaging with amazing kids, I love pediatric echocardiography because there is always more to learn! Scanning a new complex heart disease is like trying to put together a puzzle. I love working in collaboration with our amazing team of cardiologists to figure out a patient’s anatomy.”
Why do you like working at Children’s Minnesota?
“I’m grateful to be a part of an organization that values growth. Children’s Minnesota is constantly working towards being the best we can be for the kids that we serve.”
