After a bunch of applications and personal statements, many interviews, three on-site visits and a whole lot of prayer, we officially know where we're going after graduation. I have accepted an administrative fellowship position with Sutter Health in Northern California.
It's a one-year fellowship located in the Central Valley Region (which is based primarily out of Modesto). Modesto is a city of about 200,000 people that's famous for it's rich soil and incredible produce. According to the web sites, it's mild all year round (though it gets pretty hot in the middle of summer). Modesto is roughly a 1 hour drive south from Sacramento, 1.5 hours east of San Francisco, 2 hours west of Yosemite National Park (one of my absolute favorites) and about 3 hours away from Lake Tahoe.
I've been greatly impressed by the people I've met from Sutter and can't wait to start working with them. As a fellow, I'll report directly to the CEO at Memorial Medical Center but will also work on projects for the Sutter Gould Foundation (medical group) as well as some regional projects. It's an unbelievable opportunity and we couldn't be happier.
We'll likely start some time in June, so come out and visit us!!

Congratulations! We are so happy for you. I can't wait until this time next year! Still feeling motivated to study now that you have a job offer?
You guys are awesome!
When I was little I lived there for about a year. It was great. Lots of camping, hiking and rock climbing. I hope you guys love it.
Wahoo and Congrats! Sounds perfect for you guys...although I might be a little bit happier if it we in PA instead of CA!
Congrats you guys, that is exciting! We lived in the central valley for 2 years... It is nice to be close to so many fun places.
congratulations! how exciting!
Yahoo! Congrats to the Miners! Too bad you still have to make it through a whole (freezing) semester of school first...:) We're so happy for you guys!
That area of Cali is fantastic! I'll have to give you my list of favorites places to eat and see in the bay area from when I lived in Berkeley! Fantastick! I am so excited for you guys
We are SO excited for you guys! What an amazing opportunity and adventure! Plus, California is much closer than Michigan so that means we can come visit you.
So, moving again?!? That part stinks, but I am excited for your bright future! When I saw that you were going to California, Heidi, a flood of memories from our trip as Sophomores came back...tip toe through the tulips...and what was that store we roller bladed to?..we were such dorks. I'll speak for myself mostly. Oh, yeah, and I made a very similar jello to the one you posted that the other Katie in your life made. It was the hit of Thanksgiving here. Anyway, I need your address to send a card. ktthalman@hotmail.com
Is this related to Sutter Buttes Imaging in Yuba City? My company, NovaRad, has imaging software (a PACS) installed at this facility. I wonder if you will have anything to do with it.
