As a young pharmacy student, I am well aware that I still have much to learn—in technical skills as well as conceptual ability in the pharmacy world. For this reason, I am very open to various opportunities both through the pharmacy curriculum and extracurriculars that improve the health of fellow Canadians.
I truly believe our impact can be far-reaching and long-lasting if we work to knock down barriers to women in leadership, empower all our pharmacists with the autonomy to define what meaningful work means to them, and help them develop the strategy and leadership skills to execute on their passions.
I begin the clinical encounter with an open-ended question to initiate the discussion, like, “What brings you in today?” Then give the patient a full 90 seconds to respond.
Health and innovation are my main driving forces. The more our world evolves, the more we can do to advance and improve how we deliver healthcare. I am always curious about what we can do if we could be more innovative when it comes to healthcare.
