How has being a Biology graduate from Duke helped shape you personally and/or professionally?
"The Duke biology degree gave me instant credibility early in my career landing me a pathway to Medical School and the UN WHO and later humanitarian affairs for the US Government."
What advice would you give students in Duke's Biology programs?
"Find passion in a particular specialized topic but also broaden your scientific skill set with other less related minors or certification to ensure your academic skill set remains nimble to handle changing workforce areas of demand over your professional career."
