So much love to the folks that helped me excel through my sports medicine fellowship- truly something I thought about doing since second year of residency a decade ago and wild to have had this clinical curiosity for so long and now have this fun medical learning experience and professional chapter behind me. I’ve missed a bunch of events and memories this last block from July ’24 to June ’25, as one does when you work largely 6 days a week. But doing it all and burning the candle at both ends is another board cert I have.  Awesome to finally learn more nuances of msk exams and both diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound procedures and insights on human performance. The biggest joy of the year was the people that were overseeing my learning, the people that were helping in clinics, the MAs, ATs and other students/ learners. All this with some rockstar mentors like Efren Caballes, Dan Haber, Rachel Brewer, Andrew McBride, Kate Reitz, as well as my PDs Erin Morine and Nico Gamble, and so many other docs that spent so much of their own time with me.
