Get To Know Our Guest Speaker, Clint Watson
Born in Northern California, Clint Watson, MHA ’84 alumnus, spent most of his early years moving as a child growing up in an Air Force family. During his years at Mile High Academy, he found lifelong friendships and supportive teachers. After graduation, he served his country in the United States Army, 82nd Airborne, and participated in the Gulf War (Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm).
Once discharged from the Army, Clint spent a few years in the Boston area which set him on course to pursue a career in Radiology. Eventually, he earned his degree from Loma Linda University, went on to get a degree in Education/Administration, and later an MBA from University of Phoenix. His career in Hospital Imaging Leadership has spanned Washington, Colorado, and back to California.
Professionally, he currently spends most of his days in Loma Linda University Health hospitals and appreciates working with his teams to help patients and their families in difficult health situations.
When Clint is not at work, he prioritizes time with his wife, Becky (Parrish) MHA ’86 alumna, their kids, Sarah MHA ’16 alumna (now pursuing a master’s degree), and Ben MHA ’18 alumnus (now serving as a pastor). They are blessed to have extended family in the area and are very involved with their church. The Watsons are avid sports fans and join many of you to cheer for the Denver Broncos from afar. Some of Clint’s passions are playing disc golf, playing pickleball, and shooting pool to stay active.
Don’t forget to sign up for Grandparents Day! Please register by Monday, September 23, to come join the more than 50 grandparents and special loved ones who have already signed up for this fun-filled morning.
