What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my analytical skills in a collaborative environment, with opportunities for growth and development.

I am a motivated and results-driven graduate from Lamar Business School, currently seeking a challenging position within a large organization as a Pharmacy Technician Business Analyst. With a strong foundation in business strategy, data analysis, and project management, I have a proven ability to drive efficiency and deliver successful outcomes. My experience in the healthcare sector has equipped me with the skills necessary to collaborate effectively within cross-functional teams.

In my current role as a Pharmacy Technologist Specialist at the University of Texas Medical Branch, I complete prior authorizations for Endocrinology and Family Medicine clinics, ensuring compliance with Pharmacy Business Manager requirements. My previous positions have involved delivering medications to patients, assisting pharmacists with prescription orders, and collaborating with healthcare professionals to ensure optimal patient care. I am also Epic EMR and Epic Willow trained, which enhances my ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced environment.
