What a (old) feeling. Hard to believe that 40 years have passed since Alex Owens abandoned her welding career to pursue her dreams of becoming a dancer.
Medicine, too, has some Hollywood-ish stories of dramatic career changes (including a surprising number of pro football players over the years). At the AAMC, we love a good story about a winding and non-traditional path to medicine.
Do you have one? Or did you change careers? Tell us about it!
