I am a committed Doctor of Pharmacy student at NSU Barry and Judy Silverman Nova Southeastern University, with an expected graduation date in May 2027.

In this capacity, I have been involved in patient care, administering vaccinations, providing medication guidance, and promoting disease prevention. Additionally, I have been part of the team at Coral Gables Inpatient Pharmacy since September 2023. My primary focus and enthusiasm are centered on delivering empathetic patient care and advocating for the unique needs of each individual.I am involved in professional organizations such as the National Community Pharmacists Association and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists. I hold certifications in immunization administration, basic life support, and sterile compounding. At NSU, I have cherished every opportunity to contribute to the community through initiatives such as flu vaccination drives, assembling care packages for those in need, and participating in events like the Diabetes Walk.My professional attributes include adaptability, effective time management, teamwork, and a commitment to ethical standards and professionalism. These qualities enable me to make significant contributions to patient care and the broader healthcare sector.As a passionate pharmacy student, I’m excited to connect with professionals, mentors, and fellow students in the healthcare field.
