About this listen

What do mice, Old Bay Seasoning, and cancer research have in common?

Rysheem McGirt.

In the very first episode of Blue Collar White Coat Podcast, host Amy Weldon reconnects with her friend and former dolphin training volunteer, now full-time animal welfare project manager. Rysheem's full-time job supports biomedical research outside of their hometown of Baltimore, Maryland and on the side he's doing everything from Door Dash to stand-up comedy. From working two jobs in grade school to earning his MBA before he turned 30, Rysheem's STEM career has been anything but traditional, but that's what makes him the perfect guest for our first episode!

Hear how his team helps scientists fight cancer and why that means so much to him then stick around for some laughs, side hustle stories, and a little bit of Baltimore accent flair.
