I'm a pharmacist and have spent nearly two decades in the pharmaceutical and health care industry. After receiving my Doctor of Pharmacy degree, I have had the privilege to work with top leaders within two Fortune 20 companies (CVS Health and Cardinal Health). This career journey fostered an in-depth business and professional understanding of how health systems and economies operate and the increasing need to bring industry leaders front and center to shape the future of health care via legislation action. By blending community pharmacy experiences along with business and leadership expertise, I decided to "throw my white coat into the ring" to address the health care crisis we ALL face!
- As a pharmacist: I see daily the impact that high prescription copays and high-deductible medical plans have on our community.
- As a pharmacist: I fought the opioid epidemic before it was an epidemic or crisis...I stood fighting this battle with fellow pharmacists in the early 2000s before boards of pharmacy, the DEA, or state and federal support turned attention to the devastation we now face
- As a pharmacist: I stand up for women's rights and pro-choice daily
-Mental Health access and affordability
-Women's rights
-Environmental action
-Affordable housing
-Opioid epidemic
-Education-Keep public funding for public schools
