Tell me a little about your background.

I am a graduate of the University of Mississippi with a Bachelor's of Science in Integrated Marketing Communications. In the past, I have worked part-time as a nursing assistant for Merit Health River Region. I have also worked a summer internship as a sales representative for Wyndham Destinations.

Why were you interested in pursuing medical sales as a career?

I loved working in a clinical setting, but eventually decided that nursing school wasn't for me. I also loved the experience I gained from Wyndham Destinations, and discovered that I had a passion for sales. The medical device sales industry allows me to combine both of these passions into one career.

How did you learn about Medical Sales College?

MedReps

What ultimately made you decide to attend?

I came to the conclusion that I would have an extremely hard time getting a job with any medical device sales company because of my lack of experience.

How long did you try to get into the industry before attending MSC? What was that experience like?

Less than 6 months.
