What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to enhance patient care through collaboration and innovation in a supportive environment.

I am a licensed pharmacist with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree, currently serving as a staff pharmacist at Walmart since 2021. My experience in high-volume community pharmacy settings has equipped me with the skills to provide comprehensive patient-centered care, including immunizations, test-and-treat services, and medication therapy management. I pride myself on my strong clinical knowledge and ability to collaborate effectively with healthcare professionals to optimize therapeutic outcomes.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to regulatory compliance and operational excellence. I am proficient in electronic medical records systems and have a solid understanding of billing and state compliance requirements as a Medicaid-enrolled provider. My dedication to patient care is reflected in my ability to communicate effectively with patients and healthcare teams, ensuring that each individual receives the best possible care tailored to their needs.
