Emily Zellmer – Physician Assistant

November 2019 – This will be my first mission experience ever. I’ve wanted to be a part of something like this for many years, and after my cousin Laura Lutz participated with GMRP last year and shared with me the profound experience she had, I knew it was time for me to make time for a trip like this.

I studied Spanish in college, spent a semester abroad in Spain and now am thrilled to be traveling to Guatemala with this team to immerse myself again in Spanish. I have hopes of not just speaking the language but really communicating with and learning from those we will have the opportunity to serve.

I am 3+ years into my career as a Physician Assistant, currently working in primary care in a community in northern Wisconsin. I’m very excited to see what the combined experience and spirit of all of our team members will achieve on this trip!
