Today is Who’s Who Wednesday at The Athenaeum. Today we are recognizing Ethan, one of our Med Techs. Ethan’s first job was at Planet Fitness. His hobbies include running, working out, hiking, eating out and trying new foods. His favorite food is chicken, he tries to go to 3 Buffalo Bills games each year and he has been working for Peregrine for about two months and we are happy to have him on board!

If you see Ethan, be sure to congratulate him on recently finishing his second full marathon!
