I grew up in Germany and traveled all over Europe. I moved to North Carolina my third year of college where I completed a bachelor’s degree. After graduating from the University of North Carolina School of Pharmacy in 2006, I welcomed the opportunity to work with public health and begin my career in government healthcare. I fell in love with Alaska while completing a pharmacy rotation in Juneau in 2005. A desire for adventure and the ultimate challenge landed me in Anchorage, Alaska in 2006. My profession as a pharmacist affords me the opportunity to meet with patients and provide them with medication related information that can positively impact their lives. When I am at work, I enjoy being a team player, staying abreast of the latest medical advancements, and being a patient advocate. But, during my time off, I live for all that Alaska has to offer: the wonderful people, the magnificent terrain outdoors, and the vast array of wildlife.

Being 1 of 5 kids, I really enjoy going home to North Carolina and spending time with my family. I am an avid photographer and traveler and tend to keep a bag packed at all times to be prepared for any last minute getaways. I love the outdoors and the beauty encompassed therein, so whenever I have an opportunity to explore it, I gladly take it.

I am most excited about the upcoming opportunity I have to participate in the Norman Vaughan Serum Run. Being a first time participant in 2009, this challenging run will combine my love for patient care through education with my love for the great. I feel very honored to take part in this mission! I look forward to the impact I may have on the people’s lives in the villages along the trail and to experiencing the serenity and splendor of Alaska’s backcountry.
