Why did you choose to pursue a residency?

I chose to pursue a residency to expand upon my clinical and management experience, and to practice at the top of my license. When I think of a residency, I think of the song "A Whole New World" from "Aladdin." A residency opens up countless learning opportunities, and there’s still so much out there to learn and to see.

What attracted you to the Froedtert & MCW pharmacy residency program?

As an established academic medical center, Froedtert Hospital offers the type of clinical and professional development experience I was looking for. After meeting with the director and preceptors of the program, I was able to appreciate how much they invest into their residents. I am confident that the program will prepare me well to become the forward thinking clinician that I aspire to be.
