What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-centered community or independent pharmacy role where I can lead MTM, provide immunizations, precept staff, and improve medication safety and operations.

I am a dedicated pharmacist with decades of experience in independent and retail pharmacy settings, serving as staff pharmacist and pharmacist-in-charge. I specialize in medication dispensing, compounding, and ensuring medication safety through thorough verification and patient counseling.

I am APhA vaccine-certified, CPR-certified, Medicare- and MTM-trained, and have served as an MTM Outcomes leader and preceptor. I am proficient with PDX, Connexus, RX30 and Liberty pharmacy systems and regularly manage inventory, controlled substance records, and nursing-home packaging.

I bring dependable leadership, a patient-centered approach, and a commitment to collaborative care; I enjoy mentoring staff and improving workflows to enhance patient outcomes.
