Danielle Roberts MS, MMSc, PA-C is the Associate Chief of Education for Advanced Practice for the Winship Cancer Institute, Director of the Emory Hematology/Medical Oncology Advanced Practice Provider (APP) Fellowship program, and a society leader in the Emory Physician Assistant (PA) program. In this episode Danielle talks about her journey, starting with her academic work as a "lab rat" writing protocols for clinical trials and discovering that she enjoyed having students or people that were learning with her as a preceptor. This led to opportunities to supervise people, but ultimately Danielle realized "[supervising] it wasn't for me. It was really the education part that I find joy in my job and really wanted to continue on." Danielle talks about the importance of mentorship throughout her ongoing career and the individuals who have played a role her professional growth. Her words of wisdom include "if you think it'll work, try it. It never hurts to try. And if you don't try, you never know. And just enjoy and love what you do because if you love what you do, you're going to be successful at doing it." and "we have to be willing to kind of work... sometimes work a little bit extra, work a little bit differently in order to achieve those goals."
