Dr. Jan Marie Guy, PA-C, MFS
Title: Deputy Coroner
Company: U.S. HealthWorks Medical Group

Initially, Jan Guy became involved in health care because of the encouragement she received from Dr. Theodore R. Brooks, her family physician. Following his advice, her first steps into the medical field were earning a Bachelor of Science in health science and becoming a licensed physician assistant at the Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science in 1990. She followed those up with a master’s degree in forensic science from National University and a Ph.D. in public health through Rockville University, and continues to advance in her career through her current pursuit of a Ph.D. in public policy and administration from Walden University. As Dr. Guy draws upon her upbringing, faith in God, and parental support to maintain her success, she remains motivated in her endeavors because of her ability to help people and see improvements in their medical conditions.
Sharon Versyp
Title: Women’s Basketball Coach
Company: Purdue University
Location: West Lafayette, IN United States
Basketball has been a treasured part of Sharon Versyp’s life for almost as long as she can remember. Named Indiana Miss Basketball in 1984, she led the Indiana All-Star team to two victories over rival Kentucky. Ms. Versyp then joined the Purdue University team, where she was included in the starting lineup her freshman year and became one of only seven four-year starters in Purdue women’s basketball history. She led the team in scoring three straight seasons, and still ranks fourth in single game assists.
At the end of her academic playing career, Ms. Versyp decided to continue to pursue the sport she loves, and became the head coach of the women’s basketball team at Purdue. She has since spent the past 10 years overseeing the athletes, particularly with regard to recruiting, training, media, marketing, sales, hiring staff, policies, procedures, compliance, budgeting, and promotion. As a testament to her success, Ms. Versyp was inducted into the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame and was named Basketball Coach of the Year by Purdue University. She considers her greatest accomplishment to be watching her students walk across the stage to receive their degrees, however.

Wendy Pagaduan, RN
Title: Founder
Company: Clean Coconut
Location: Castle Rock, CO United States
Inspired by her grandmother, who never let her multiple sclerosis diagnosis get her down or keep her from doing what she loved, Wendy Pagaduan recently launched Clean Coconut. The health and wellness company’s philosophy is simple: to use natural, premium and organic ingredients in every product they make. Ms. Pagaduan has struggled with sensitive skin, eczema, and keratosis pilaris throughout her life, and physicians could not clear her conditions. She was left with no choice but to look for natural remedies, and with a bit of research, she was able to develop her own product lines that did what no prescription drugs could do for her. Ms. Pagaduan decided that she wanted to share these remedies with others who struggle with the same issues, and thus her business was born. She plans to offer a variety of 100 percent natural skin products, as well as essential oils, diffusers, and aromatherapy merchandise.
