Hi! My name is Jessica and I am a sixth-year pharmacy student at St. John’s University. My interest in pharmacy started in high school since I have a lot of family in the field. I’ve worked at Capsule and Walgreens in the past, and I’ve enjoyed my time working in retail pharmacy as I like talking to patients and educating them on their medications. I did my IPPE rotations at Walgreens and NUMC and they were good experiences. At NUMC I learned more about pharmacy operations in the hospital which was interesting. So far, I’ve done my APPE rotations at a Meds to Beds pharmacy, a specialty pharmacy, and spent 2 months rotating in the ICU. They have been such good experiences and I have been learning so much. I was raised in Long Island, but in 2020 my family moved to Georgia, so I will likely be moving back to be with my family once I graduate. After I graduate, I envision myself moving back to Georgia, studying for the NAPLEX and MPJE, taking some time off to travel a bit, and then working at a retail pharmacy, but I am open to other paths and opportunities as well!
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, playing the violin, traveling, and spending time in nature.
Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn!
