The Who's Who Of Medical Partners: Round 7

Happy Friday! Today is our final Who's Who and we would like to introduce Abby and Amy our Philanthropy Officers.

Hi! I'm Amy Nicholson and this is my second year as the philanthropy co-chair.  My husband, Nate, is in his third year of Orthopaedic residency.  We are both from Iowa and did our undergrad at the University of Iowa where we met.  Nate worked as a night manager at the Ronald McDonald House (RMH) and I was a volunteer.  This is one reason I hold the RMH so near and dear to my heart. We continued on at the University of Iowa for grad school, he attended medical school and I attended the pharmacy school.  I work part time at an independent pharmacy south of Iowa City.  We have one son, Luke, who is 18 mths and full of energy! When I'm not busy with work I like to spend as much time outside as possible running, biking, weeding, you name it we are always outside and on the go! IMP has been a great community resource for different organizations to contact if they are in need of volunteers. I have enjoyed rounding up volunteers and helping out myself.  So keep an eye out for opportunities and volunteer!

Hello! My name is Abby Carpenter and I am the Philanthropy Co-chair. My husband is a 3rd year Internal Medicine resident and we are from Kansas City, MO. I work in Career Services for the Full-Time MBA Program at the University of Iowa and absolutely love my job! In my free time I like to shop downtown at the ped mall, spend time with friends and make occasional road trips back to MO. No kiddos yet, but we do have the most adorable dog named Jobin! I look forward to meeting more members and hope you all are enjoying Iowa City and Iowa Medical Partners! Oh, and go Hawkeyes!!!
