About the Speaker
John B. Molidor, Ph.D., grew up as one of ten children, where he says he learned first-hand about 'career planning' from sitting around the dining room! He has since watched as each of his siblings has gone into completely professions.

When he's not trying to figure out the universe, he can be found at Michigan State University's College of Human Medicine where he is a Professor of Psychiatry and a Regional Campus Assistant Dean and serves as the CEO and President for his medical school's Flint Campus. He has worked with medical students for years and is extremely interested in helping them obtain their career goals. He has also served as his medical school's Dean of Admissions, Student Affairs, and Educational Programs.
