I’ve more-or-less split my 15+ year career between bigtime health and bigtime consumer, and truly do think that each has made me better at the other, even if it didn’t always feel that way at the time.
To put it another way, I regularly out-concept pencil-winners, out-pencil medical editors, and get a warm fuzzy feeling from both.
