What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to utilize my pharmaceutical expertise while fostering patient care and team collaboration.

I am a passionate and committed pharmaceutical technologist with extensive experience in various healthcare settings. My journey began with a diploma in Pharmacy from KMTC Nairobi Campus, followed by practical training at Kenyatta Hospital, where I honed my skills in medication management and patient care. I have worked in community pharmacies and hospitals, including PCEA Chogoria Mission Hospital and Bliss Healthcare, where I successfully led a team of pharmaceutical technologists to ensure timely and quality patient satisfaction.

Currently, I am employed at Aga Khan University Hospital, where I leverage my experience to maintain high standards of patient care and medication management. My role involves coordinating with various departments to ensure an uninterrupted supply of essential medications while implementing best practices in inventory management and patient consultation. I take pride in my ability to counsel patients effectively and ensure their understanding of prescribed medications, contributing to their overall health and recovery.
