What I'm looking for
I’m a PTCB-certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT) with 13+ years of experience across hospital, infusion, and retail pharmacy settings. I bring strong 340B program support, prior authorization, and medication access capabilities, with a proven ability to navigate complex insurance and workflow processes to reduce delays in therapy initiation.
Across high-volume environments, I focus on safety, accuracy, and compliance—supporting sterile and non-sterile compounding, IV medication preparation, and documentation in line with regulatory standards. I’ve trained and mentored staff as a pharmacy technician preceptor, managed inventory and drug procurement to reduce shortages and waste, and resolved insurance and billing issues to improve patient access to high-cost therapies.
