What I'm looking for

I am seeking a collaborative drug safety or medical information role in a global pharma setting where I can apply AE reporting, regulatory expertise, and medical literature evaluation to improve patient safety and grow professionally.

I am a PharmD and MPH-trained pharmacist focused on drug safety, medical information, and patient-centered pharmacovigilance.

I have hands-on experience with adverse event and safety reporting (MedWatch, VAERS), medical literature evaluation, clinical data review, and regulatory documentation across FDA, EMA, and Health Canada frameworks.

My background includes patient-facing roles in medical offices, insurance preauthorization coordination, and supporting medical education as a teaching assistant, which strengthened my documentation, EMR/HIPAA compliance, and interprofessional communication skills.

I delivered award-winning research, earning first place for a breast cancer capstone and presenting on herbal medication impacts, and I am eager to apply my pharmacovigilance, medical information, and regulatory skills within a global pharmaceutical setting.
