In this episode we chat with the one, the only Jimmy G, who is the creator of PA Collective, and has become a niched TikTok star in the last 18 months, all while wrapping up his PA education. He's a new grad ER PA and shares with us about how to feel confident as a once upon a time band "geek" (not really) and monetize an idea you have, while also giving us a peek into his non-traditional journey to becoming a PA! It's a great one!
