I optimize critical-care medication regimens during ICU emergencies, rounds, and patient transitions.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I'm the sole ICU clinical pharmacist at OSF Little Company of Mary Medical Center, managing medications for critically ill patients, responding to hospital-wide codes, and rounding daily with intensivists and nurses. I've also been selected to design and launch the hospital's first pharmacy residency program.
Across ICU and emergency pharmacy roles at Advocate Christ Medical Center, Rush Oak Park, and Provident Hospital of Cook County, I've managed high-acuity regimens, supported hundreds of cardiac arrests and stroke alerts, and trained clinical teams in medication safety. I developed a psychiatric discharge-counseling program that reduced readmissions by 15% and have served as an ECMO pharmacist, Remodulin superuser, and educator for nurses, residents, and pharmacists.
