What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry role in pharmaceutical formulation/analytical research where I can use QC/QA, lab instruments, and analytical chemistry to support innovative, sustainable healthcare—while learning from hands-on work and collaborative teams.

I’m a dedicated Bachelor of Pharmacy graduate with a strong foundation in pharmaceutical sciences, analytical chemistry, and material research. I enjoy applying scientific principles to real-world challenges, especially where drug design and advanced materials can support safer, more sustainable healthcare.

In my part-time pharmacy assistant role, I support patient safety by accurately dispensing prescribed medications, verifying dosage instructions, maintaining detailed inventory records, and guiding patients on correct usage, side effects, and lifestyle precautions. I also record prescriptions and treatment notes with precision and confidentiality.

Through my industrial trainee experience, I worked alongside the Quality Control team on sample preparation, testing, and documentation, while learning about polymeric excipients for drug delivery and formulation stability. I observed and followed Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and industrial safety protocols under supervision.

I’m also driven by lab-based research and validation. My project on a polyherbal anthelmintic syrup (from Clitoria ternatea) involved physicochemical evaluation, preliminary phytochemical screening, and an in vitro earthworm model for anthelmintic activity, supported by hands-on training in UV-Visible Spectrophotometry, HPLC, and FTIR.
