Hey guys, I’m Alex Nicoll, and I’m from Coppell, Texas. I’m a junior journalism and finance major at the University of Arkansas. I serve as the editor-in-chief of the student-run newspaper The Arkansas Traveler. I hope you all enjoy the work we put into these stories and learn more about the VA health care system, too.

Working on this project led me to meet some of the most hard-working people who try to make the lives of veterans in NWA easier. These people have a thankless job, but they still care about their patients.
