What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a healthcare role where I can strengthen clinical pharmacy operations and compliance—especially Medicare Star, CMS, and 340B—while improving medication continuity and patient outcomes through data-driven outreach and advocacy.

I’m a Certified Pharmacy Technician with 15+ years of hospital experience, blending clinical pharmacy operations with patient advocacy and compliance oversight. I focus on keeping patients safe through precise medication workflows and strong documentation practices.

In my current population health role, I conduct 1,000+ post-discharge medication reconciliations annually and drive Medicare Star measure adherence through targeted outreach and patient education. I analyze population health data to identify adherence gaps, support compliance audits, and improve performance reporting—contributing to 4- and 5-Star quality ratings.

I’ve also led sterile compounding and medication safety work under USP <797>/<800>, overseen 340B program and patient assistance compliance, and supervised a team of 12 technicians while maintaining QA standards and zero major deficiencies during inspections. I’m now pursuing a Juris Master’s in Health Law and Regulation to deepen my impact at the intersection of healthcare compliance and patient-centered outcomes.
