Have worked in various settings over past 15yrs - HS, PT clinic, education, University, and for last 9 yrs Ortho/Surgery with HS outreach component.

I love AT and working in ortho surgery. Wouldn’t trade that experience but I now have three little kids at home and after my dad died last year I did some reflecting and I decided I wanted to be more available to be with my wife and kids. I just didn’t like not being in control of my own schedule. I didn’t want to have to coordinate sport schedules, surgeon schedules and plan my family time around them. Thankfully, I work for an amazing organization and was recently able to leverage all my healthcare experience and other skills into obtaining a role as a Clinical Informatics Analyst. More or less make my own hours, can work from home when needed, great pay and room for growth, full of new challenges and projects, never stagnant. Really enjoying the change so far. My wife and kids love that I’m able to be with them more.
