What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my clinical skills and contribute to patient care in a collaborative environment.

I am a passionate pharmacist with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Shenandoah University, where I honed my skills in clinical pharmacology and patient counseling. My experience includes working as a Pharmacy Intern and a Certified Pharmacy Technician, where I developed a strong foundation in medication therapy management and patient communication. I have a proven track record of collaborating with healthcare teams to optimize drug therapy and improve patient outcomes.

Throughout my professional journey, I have actively engaged in research, presenting findings on COVID-19 vaccine side effects and contributing to publications in the field of oncology. My leadership roles, including serving as the Student Chapter President of the Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy, have equipped me with the skills to lead teams and organize impactful events. I am committed to continuous learning and applying my knowledge to enhance patient care in the pharmacy setting.
