Emily Duerr! Emily is a 24yo third-year medical student, a 2nd lieutenant in the US Army, and a future farmer. I’ve known Emily since the first week of medical school and I’m excited to see where her drive takes her career. During this conversation, we discuss her Lutheran upbringing, the importance of raising chickens, and her passion for veteran’s care.
I hope you enjoy!
Emily is…
incredibly independent,
very dedicated,
a little intense at times,
and patriotic.
Before Emily dies, she wants…
a farm with a family, Shane, dogs, chickens,
and to become the best version of herself.
When Emily dies, she wants…
to be surrounded by friends and family,
and it to not be a big sad thing.
After Emily dies, she wants…
to be remembered as a kick-ass mom.
In conclusion, Emily says…
Find what works for you and go for it.
Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something.
