Description

This month we are excited to feature a series called Exploring Vet Med Intersectionality. This is our veterinary take on the sociological concept of intersectionality, which looks at how various social identities interact and impact an individual's experience. We'll be highlighting the stories of individuals from underrepresented communities working in underserved areas of that med, and how their identities impacted their career paths. Our guest today is Dr. Amber Headen. Dr. Headen is the Director of Live Animal Exports with USDA APHIS. She shares what the road to regulatory medicine looked like for her.  It is a great conversation, and we are so excited to have her join us to conclude this series.
