Heidi Taggart (E-22)

Heidi is originally from Princeton, NJ, and completed a bachelor's degree in cognitive science and classics at Johns Hopkins University before moving to Wyoming in 2017. She pursued a career in the ski and outdoor industry, becoming a fully certified PSIA ski instructor, among other certifications, before the COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity to re-engage with medicine. She has worked at St. John's Health in Jackson, WY, as a patient care tech for the past two years, which exposed her to different aspects of inpatient, community, and rural healthcare. Heidi is looking forward to exploring many other specialties, with additional interest in global health and topics related to social justice issues in healthcare. In her free time, she enjoys back-country and in-bounds skiing, climbing, biking, knitting sweaters, playing golf, and hiking with her five-year-old Samoyed, Madi.
