Bio: Kendall has had the pleasure of being part of the AMN team for 6 years now! Currently, she is the Director of Coverage in Account Management and Recruitment, where I get to do what I love—supporting our incredible clinicians, clients, and local communities. I call Denver, CO home, where I live with my wonderful fiancé and our mischievous dog, Stella, who keeps us on our toes! When I’m not working, you can usually find me with my nose in a book, running around the lake, hitting the trails, or attempting to conquer the slopes as I learn to ski.
