We talk about about SP work in the DMV, about what about other parts of the US? Is everywhere there’s SP’s for the just traditional university medical work? Today we explore these questions with guest Aviva Pressman as she shares with us stories from her wide range of experience as an SP and roleplay actor.

Aviva Pressman (she/they) has been working as a standardized patient, standardized patient trainer, physical exam training associate, lactation skills training associate and gynecological training associate for over 10 years. The day she had to have her taint painted with scars by a professional make-up artist was the day she knew she’d made it in this business.
