What are you most proud of regarding your career?

I am proud to work with inspiring colleagues to impact lives of patients across a broader scale and launch new medicines. Very grateful for my education, mentors, colleagues, collaborators, and career experiences along the way!

How was your RU Pharmacy experience foundational to where you are today?

The EMSOP Rutgers Pharmacy program provides a strong PharmD clinical curriculum, exceptional faculty, diverse rotational settings, access to leadership roles in student organizations, and professional contacts across all settings of pharmacy.

Additionally, as an alumni of the Rutgers/Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield Managed Care residency program, I am fortunate to have seen the healthcare landscape from a patient, provider, and payer perspective which paved the way for my career in the pharmaceutical industry.

Are there any passion projects you’d like to share with other alums?

I am grateful for opportunities give back to tomorrow’s leaders in our profession through career mentoring of PharmD students/RPIF fellows. Additionally, as a STEM education volunteer and as a past cofounder of a STEM program, it is rewarding to introduce students to the world of science as a potential career path.
