Picture in Milan, Italy


Countries already traveled to include New Zealand, Iceland, and Italy! I would love to travel and I hope to visit every continent in my life.

  • I am interested in Global Health for a variety of reasons, the main one being that I have a significant interest in helping those who are not able to help themselves. When I think of who fits into that population, I think of those living in underserved countries who cannot obtain the healthcare they deserve and require. I am not sure how this will look in my future practice, but I do know that I want to help those who need it most. I hope that at some point this will entail working or volunteering as a pharmacist globally through international organizations to help individuals who do not have the access to care that they deserve.
