Pharmacist and pharmacy manager focused on patient safety, workflow optimization, and team leadership.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented pharmacist with over seven years of pharmacy experience and four years in management, dedicated to patient safety, clinical accuracy, and efficient operations. I have expertise in prescription verification, compounding, immunizations, and counseling patients on medications and OTC products.
As a pharmacy manager and regional trainer at a high-volume retail chain, I trained staff, led workflow optimization, managed inventory reductions worth thousands weekly, and oversaw insurance and inventory audits. I routinely handled 20–30+ prior authorizations daily, coordinated with providers and PBMs, and organized community flu clinics.
I approach my work with strong communication, problem-solving, and leadership skills, striving to improve processes, ensure compliance with Medicare and state regulations, and deliver high-quality patient care across multiple sites.
