How I fell in love with pharmacy:
Upon starting practice in the acute care setting, I had the realization of how critical pharmacy is to care team. Being a resource for other highly respected professionals and clinicians brought an incredible sense of pride and belonging.

Three things people may not know about me:
- My wife is a fellow pharmacy school graduate from 2013, and we have two boys, Jude and Miles, and two dogs, Penicillin and Lidocaine.
- I am a bit of a movie buff, specifically in comedy films, and quote silly movies nearly to a fault.
- I would rather vacation at a national park with unlimited trails than a week on a beach. Adventure is where it’s at, and I’m too much of a busy body to sit or lay on the sand.
