Dedicated pharmacist with extensive clinical and management experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a Doctor of Pharmacy graduate with a passion for patient care and a strong background in clinical pharmacy. My experience as a Staff Pharmacist at Apotheco Pharmacy Group has honed my skills in verifying complex medication orders and building relationships with healthcare providers. I take pride in ensuring patients receive the best possible care through effective medication management and counseling.
Throughout my career, I have held various roles at CVS Health, where I progressed from Pharmacy Intern to Pharmacy Manager. This journey has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of pharmacy operations, patient care activities, and the importance of collaboration with prescribers and insurance companies. I have also gained valuable insights into pharmaceutical advertising and healthcare communications during my internship at CDM New York, where I analyzed clinical trials and presented findings to clients.
In addition to my pharmacy expertise, I am a professional lacrosse player, which has taught me the importance of teamwork, discipline, and time management. I am committed to continuous learning and community service, actively participating in health screenings and food distribution programs. My diverse experiences have shaped my professional ethos, and I am eager to contribute my skills to a dynamic healthcare team.
