🌟 Where Are They Now: Kimberly Nguyen, PsyD 🌟

If you were part of MQA in 2020–2022, you’ll remember brilliant, kind, bunny-mom-extraordinaire Kimberly — she literally wrote the manual on how we train externs in our testing track!

When our offices were closed during Covid, Kimberly and the assessment team kept our testing program going from a little hut in Dr. Quinn’s backyard. Like the post office, we worked in all weather conditions - including once when the sprinklers went off unexpectedly and once during an actual snowstorm 🏕️❄️☃️😂💛

Kimberly met every challenge with humor, grace, and diagnostic brilliance and turned a wild year into one of our most laughter-filled chapters.

Now she’s a pediatric & family psychologist at Primary Care Psychology Associates (PCPA) and a proud 🐰 mom!

✨ Favorite coworkers:
💛 Dr. Mirjam Quinn — “My first supervisor who made me feel so welcomed (and kept me laughing through supervision)!”
💙 Dr. Mikiela Cobb — “Such a steady presence who gave me confidence when I doubted myself.”

🧘‍♀️ Kimberly says she misses MQA’s warmth, yoga staff meetings, and community most:
“It’s rare to find a workplace where connection is woven into everyday culture.”

We love you and we're so proud of you, Kimberly — thank you for helping build a legacy of warmth, excellence, and joy… one backyard testing hut at a time. 💛

It translates to “place of the fisherman,” and in this video they demoed “fisherman net” style paper cut decorations which are used to decorate altars for Day of the Dead to honor our loved ones no longer with us. 💙♥️💜💛💚🧡
