Why the PALLA fellowship?
"It is no secret among the physician assistant community that diving into teaching can be a tremendous challenge, but also a great opportunity for personal and academic growth. The PALLA fellowship has been amazing to cement the foundational objectives and methods that I need as a PA educator to assure that my students are the best possible future PAs they can be."
