WHY VA?

I started working at the VA as a post-baccalaureate research assistant in 2006. I chose to return to the VA after graduate school because of my commitment to serving a diverse population of Veterans. I deeply believe in the mission of the VA, and it brings me joy to work to improve the health and lives of Veterans.
