Where I'm headed
From the pharmacy counter to medical affairs
My next chapter is medical affairs. I'm completing my PharmD in December 2026 and moving into medical affairs and pharmaceutical research, where the rigor of clinical pharmacy meets the craft of scientific communication. The goal is simple: connect emerging science with the clinicians and patients who depend on it.
