In this episode, host Emma Sellers, MS, sits down with Kathryn Reed, PA-C, assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh and founder of the National Society of Black Physician Assistants (NSBPA), to explore how virtual shadowing is transforming access to the PA profession. Reed explains how this innovative approach expands opportunities for pre-PA students, especially those facing geographic, financial, or systemic barriers. She offers practical tips for identifying high-quality virtual experiences and dives into the broader PA pathway—from application challenges to the power of mentorship. Whether you're an aspiring PA or supporting future healthcare leaders, this conversation offers insight, encouragement, and resources for the journey ahead.
