The Career That Set Me Free
The Career That Set Me Free
How Sterile Processing Took Me to 24 Countries, and How You Can Start With No School Required
Most people work 50 weeks a year to enjoy two weeks of vacation. I found another way.
After a cancer diagnosis ended my photography career, I discovered sterile processing, a healthcare career most people have never heard of. In 2021, I started at $23 an hour. About a year later I became a travel technician, and I’ve made over $100,000 every year since while taking 10+ trips a year to 24 countries.
This is the straight-to-the-point guide I wish I’d had. No fluff and no gatekeeping, just the exact steps.
Inside you’ll learn:
- How to get into a medical career that most people have never heard of and is in high demand
- How to get certified for about $230 through self-study, no school required
- How to pass the CRCST exam, including the free practice tests I recommend
- How to get hired with no experience, with a sample résumé and 11 interview questions with answers
- How to complete your 400 hands-on hours
- When you’re ready to travel, and how to land your first contract
- How travel pay, stipends and tax homes actually work
- The strategy I use to take 10+ trips a year
- Where this career can take you: lead tech, supervisor, educator, manager and more
Who it’s for: career changers, parents who want more money and more time, people with no medical background, and current techs who want to start traveling.
