Career Insights: Health Professions

Career Insights is a speaker and panel series that introduces Barnard students to professionals from a broad range of fields. Guest speakers, most often Barnard alumnae, will hold informal chats or participate in panel presentations based on their industry.

 If working in Healthcare interests you, but pursuing a career as a Medical Doctor is not exactly what you're looking for, then we invite you to join us! In this edition of Career Insights, you'll hear from alumnae in careers within Healthcare to understand their career trajectories and decision-making. Confirmed Panelists: Lisa Schilowitz '02 - Occupational Therapist at NYC DoE Martina Chwascinska-Szarek '08 - Midwife and Nurse Practitioner at Sutter East Bay Medical Group Ivy Vega '15 - Occupational Therapist at New York-Presbyterian Hospital Elizabeth Scott '12 - Physician Assistant at White Plains Hospital
