I am a PharmD student and Pharmacy Intern with 3+ years of experience in pharmacy operations and direct patient support. In fast-paced settings, I have helped keep workflows organized, ensured accurate prescription processing, and supported patients with empathy, clarity, and respect. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to patient-centered care, medication safety, and equitable access to health services. With a background in biology, I’m motivated by the science behind treatment decisions and by the human side of healthcare, especially communication, trust, and follow-through. I’m interested in how pharmacy can reduce barriers for patients while improving quality and efficiency across the care team. I’m also interested in psychedelic science as an emerging area of research with potential relevance to mental health care. My focus is on evidence-based practice, ethical implementation, and harm reduction, with the goal of supporting safe, medically responsible approaches as the science and policies evolve. I hope to contribute to a future where healthcare is both rigorous and compassionate, and where patients are met with competence, dignity, and understanding.
