My name is Alyssa. I'm a Physician Assistant with a degree in Athletic Training. I live and work in rural Pennsylvania. I am married with three children. I love my family and my profession... every day I learn something new. The line separating my family life and my professional life has become less defined and more abstract every day. Medicine, much like children, grows, changes, and adapts based on outside influences and internal struggles. What I take away from this merging is that the future is full of new beginnings which will be shaped by the choices and opportunities we are afforded today. Future posts will be my attempt to keep up with the world of medicine and my three children as they engage themselves in the world around them and as the world around them pushes back to shape their future. Here's to daily new beginnings!!
