Why I Choose Health: Health is Wealth

At PHM, our roles and reasons for being here are many. We’ve asked people to answer a few questions, letting us know a few of the things that make them unique, what they like best about PHM and of course, why they’ve chosen health.

If you could visit another PHM Office (Philly, NYC, CHI, LA) which would you like to visit most, and why?

I would love to visit the Philly office. A large majority of my team is based out of Philly, including fellow Strategy team members and, of course, colleagues across teams that I work with on a daily basis. I’m thankful that I’ve been able to meet some of them, but I’d love to meet all of them in person!

If you could Work Your World anywhere, where would you work? If you are planning to Work Your World, tell us about it! 

I’m currently thinking about a Work Your World trip to Spain for next year! I have some friends and family in Barcelona and Madrid, so it would be great to have the opportunity to spend more time with them. I would also love to visit other areas of the country like San Sebastian, Marbella, Valencia and Mallorca.I am fluent in Spanish, so I hope that will make it easier to get acclimated to the country once I arrive. Still lots of planning left to do, but I am excited about potentially taking part in the Work Your World program!

What is your favorite restaurant and why?

My favorite restaurant is Le Relais de Venise L’Entrecôte. There are 5 locations worldwide, and thankfully, the NYC location just opened up last year! Along with bread and salad, there is only one entrée on the menu—entrecôte, which is a thinly sliced ribeye. This dish, paired with their secret green sauce and French fries, is incredible, and you can’t go wrong with a glass of their house Bordeaux wine on the side. Highly recommend checking out this spot when you’re in NYC.

What non-work-related skill would you most like to learn? 

Music is a passion of mine and I love learning how to play new instruments. I took piano lessons for over a decade, and now I am learning how to play the guitar. Once I become a better guitarist, I would love to start a band and write music of my own, or even just play covers of my favorite songs.

Why did you choose health?

I chose health because ultimately, health is wealth. While relationships, friendships, and money may come and go—without health, we have nothing. A healthy person desires many things, but a sick person only wishes for one. Working in an industry where we’re able help connect people across the country with health solutions that can improve their lives is truly a blessing. Every day, I am grateful for the opportunity to work at PHM, where I get to work alongside colleagues that share this similar passion for media and health—which makes coming into work a privilege and a joy.
