After working as an interrogator
After working as an interrogator for the US Army and running a scuba shop (among other things), Trina spent 15 years working in technology transfer departments at educational institutions before moving to the Portland VA Medical Center, where she is currently a Technology Transfer Specialist (and the only VA technology transfer professional in the state of Oregon).
Although her title contains the word specialist, her very diverse educational and career background makes her more of a generalist and, as you will hear today, has benefited her enormously in her career.
During this episode, Trina shares why she chose to move from educational institutions to the federal government, the similarities and differences between the two spheres, and her advice for anyone considering making the transition.
