John Brockman served as the 60th National President of the American
Medical Student Association from 2010-2011. Prior to being elected
president, he served three terms on the Board of Trustees as
Premedical Trustee, Secretary of the Board of Trustees and as the
National Vice President for Internal Affairs. John also served two
terms on the AMSA Foundation Board of Directors.
An Omaha, Nebraska native, John graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Truman
State University in Kirksville, Missouri, where he studied biology and
business administration. While at Truman, he led one of the largest
premedical AMSA chapters organizing events around World AIDS Day,
S-CHIP reauthorization, covering the uninsured and developing student
leaders.
John is an avid runner and traveler, and when not studying or working
with AMSA, can be found cheering for his favorite sports teams (Go
Huskers!). A hopeful future urologist, he hopes to also complete a
master’s degree in public policy. Upon graduating, he hopes to both
practice and teach while remaining active in policy work.
