Andrea H., Athletic Trainer II, went to college in central Pennsylvania and then left the state, spending time in Hawaii and Connecticut as she pursued her career in athletic training and got her master's degree. Then last year, two of Andrea's former colleagues contacted her and recruited her to come back home to UPMC.

"They had a position open and told me about all the changes that benefited us as UPMC employees," Andrea said. "The timing was right, so I made the move back and am happy to be home."

"Since being back, I have been promoted to Athletic Trainer II and Site Coordinator of my school. I am enjoying a better work-life balance that isn’t always easy to come by as an Athletic Trainer and I hope to continue to climb the career ladder here at UPMC," Andrea said.

"I started my career with UPMC's Athletic Training department in 2008. Growing up, I had a passion for sports and sciences, so athletic training seemed like a perfect career path for me. Once joining UPMC, I was contracted to work with the Pittsburgh Public School District, specifically Perry, Oliver, and Schenley High Schools. In 2022, I was promoted to Pittsburgh City region supervisor, which is my current job title. Becoming more involved in our department not only helped my professional growth but also allowed me to utilize the career ladder that UPMC offers.

Each day, I get to spend time with high school athletes who are very appreciative of the services that I provide for them. No day is ever the same, so it keeps things fresh and exciting. One day I may be working the sidelines of a high school football game, while the next day I could be working with an athlete recovering from an ankle sprain. It is very rewarding to help injured athletes and rehab them back to health. Seeing an athlete return to their sport safely and thank me for all that I’ve done always reminds me why I love my job." - Michael K., Supervisor, Athletic Training

An inspiring story to start your week 💜

Sandy Miller is a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, nurse, caregiver to two rescue dogs and two rescue cats, a UPMC employee, and a cancer patient. But being diagnosed with terminal cancer did not stop Sandy from pursuing a full life. Read Sandy’s full story at the link below. We’re so grateful that Sandy shared her story with us, and know you’ll be inspired by it, too!

“Being diagnosed with terminal cancer did not stop my life. Instead, it enhanced how I see things, it gave me a chance to make time to do the things I always thought I was too busy for, and it reminded me that patience is a virtue (I needed this one). I have met some pretty amazing people along the way. I am busier than ever, and I embrace that; I never want to miss the important things or memories being made. Not every day is roses and rainbows, and believe me—there are dark days. But my mindset and determination have never let me down. I could spend all day telling you what and who I am thankful for: it takes a village of family and friends to keep me going.”

Being diagnosed with terminal cancer did not stop Sandy Miller from pursuing a full life. She shares her story of support and inspiration with UPMC Careers.
