Why did you choose Wagner for graduate school?

The reasons I chose Wagner included being part of a civic-minded community looking to make a positive impact, the school's unique position of being ingrained in the fabric of New York City, and the reputation of the health program. 

How did you find your first post-Wagner job?

During the summer between my two years at Wagner, I held an internship position which I had obtained via Wagner on-campus recruitment.  I received a full-time job offer from that internship.

Describe your current job.

I currently serve as the Senior Director of Adult Reconstruction and Joint Replacement at the Hospital for Special Surgery, in New York, NY.  In this role I am responsible for managing the largest joint replacement service in the world, which generates $400M in annual revenue and has a 1% market share of all joint replacements in the United States.
