Current Role: Medical Writer

Alma Mater: Philadelphia College of Pharmacy

During my time in pharmacy school, I tried to learn about the various career paths for pharmacists and wanted to see which one best fit my interests. Initially, I worked in community and hospital pharmacy settings, however, I found them to be similar and routine. During my APPE rotations, I tried to pick areas outside of my comfort zone that were interesting and would also broaden my knowledge of potential careers. My rotations covered a wide variety of areas from internal medicine to emergency medicine and even a medical mission trip to Guatemala. During these rotations, I realized I enjoyed responding to drug information inquiries and learning about novel therapies not previously taught in pharmacy school. I knew then that I wanted a career that would combine these aspects of pharmacy that I enjoyed.
