My favorite NDSU experience would have is being able to meet and develop genuine relationships with the pharmacy faculty. They truly want you to succeed and they will find all and any opportunities for you. I loved being able to connect with the pharmacy faculty because they are interested in who you are and will go above and beyond for you to reach your dreams.

My greatest accomplishment at NDSU isn’t one moment or accomplishment. I believe it is the accumulation of accomplishments that have led me to where I am today. I am growing every day as an individual and I’m proud of everything I’ve accomplished at NDSU equally. I’ve given my all and put in hard work to accomplish each goal I’ve chased. So, that’s why I believe there isn’t an accomplishment that outshines another.

Plans after graduation: I plan to continue my education within the pharmacy program. I am currently a second-year pharmacy student and will graduate in 2024. I hope to continue my education after 2024 with a residency program focusing on ambulatory care. I want to work in a setting that involves serving underserved populations because it will allow me to focus on certain disease states and become an expert. I believe it will make me more valuable as a pharmacist as well as allow me to work closely with patients. I value work culture and hold strong values in being an empathetic person. I know I will be able to connect with these patients on a deeper level while giving them the best care I can.
