1/18-19/2020 For this long weekend right before the school semester starts for me, and Ben jets off to study abroad in Vienna for 3 months, we all met up in Greenville, South Carolina (just a quick 2 hours from Atlanta) for some super fun family time. Brandon and I arrived late Friday night, and had …
1/18/2020 I love making goals, it helps me to organize my priorities as I strive to achieve each one, and gives me something to celebrate when I reach a new milestone! 2020 seems like such a good year to make some big moves forward in life, with the new decade and the fun of saying …
1/15/2020 I just finished up my first official rotation of pharmacy school! At Mercer, we have a 2-week community rotation that we can complete after our P1 year, either in the Summer or Winter break during P2 year. I chose to do mine during Winter break at Poole’s Pharmacy, an independent pharmacy here in Atlanta. …
1/12/2020 My word for this year is “balance.” My word for 2019 was “enthusiasm,” and I truly took on everything I did with the spirit of that word. I learned a lot, grew a lot, and set myself up for an extremely promising 2020. The year 2020 has always seemed like such an exciting milestone …
12/28-31/2019 We headed to NYC for a few days in the Big Apple to see all the holiday festivities. I have been to New York tons of times, but never at the holidays, and was SO excited to finally be there. We flew in around 2 PM and immediately headed out on the town after …
12/14/19 We spent the day in Helen, Georgia yesterday, just a short hour long drive from our apartment in Norcross! We were joined by Brandon’s parents, sister, and grandparents and had such a fun Saturday just a couple weeks before Christmas. We arrived just as the parade was starting and got to watch it make …
12/9/2019 We made the trip up to Asheville, NC on Monday to do some pre-convention planning at the Omni Grove Park Inn. We had meetings with event staff and got to see all the convention center meeting space, as well as downtown Asheville where we plan to have several events throughout the weekend in June. …
11/18/19 I talk about advocacy for the profession of pharmacy and the patients that we serve all the time, but recently my eyes were open to a new perspective on advocacy through my faith as a Christian. At church this Sunday, we were talking about a passage in Proverbs 31:8-9 that reads, “Speak up for …
11/4/2019 For the past couple of weeks since MRM2019 came to a close, I’ve been reflecting on my time as a regional officer of APhA-ASP. Just 2 months into my P1 year, I made the nearly 8 hour drive from Atlanta to Memphis to attend MRM2018 where I planned to run for a regional office. …
10/27/2019 On Sunday we woke up bright and early for a breakfast honoring Congressman Buddy Carter, the only pharmacist serving in the House of Representatives. We heard from Rolf Benirschke and Bill Osborn at the opening session. I even got to meet Tom Menighan, the CEO of APhA. Then I headed over to coffee with …
