I have come here from New Jersey, the garden state to Montana’s oro y plata,(gold & silver) the treasure state to be a part of the Rocky Vista University Montana College of Osteopathic Medicine.  RVU MCOM is not only Montana’s newest treasure, but also an amazing national treasure as we participate in educating the next generation of excellent health professionals and osteopathic physicians.  I could not resist this ‘once in a lifetime opportunity to be on the inaugural team of such an exciting endeavor as this medical school with our innovative curriculum and the unique features of the actual building itself with a state of the art simulation lab, a demonstration kitchen, a wellness studio, a state of the art fitness facility and meditation and focus rooms throughout the building. I was born and raised in New Jersey, land of the Leni Lenape peoples, and have lived in New York City, Washington, DC, and Philadelphia.
