From barnyard to boardroom: Dr. Linda Rhodes shares her exciting career path from despite the many 'no's, becoming Utah's first large animal veterinarian taking care of cows in world-class daires to the many adventures that followed. Dr. Linda continued to get a PhD, to lead teams in the pharmaceutical industry, to starting her own consulting firm, to starting the first award to recognize women in animal health, The Feather in Her Cap award. She is also an Iron Paw award winner. She is now an author: her memoir "Breaking the Barnyard Barriers: A Woman Veterinarian Paves the Way" will be released on Feb 17, 2026. (link below)
