Hometown: Plano, Texas
Pharmacy Education: Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Jerry H. Hodge School of Pharmacy
Why did you choose Texas Children’s Hospital? The mission and vision of Texas Children's are shown through the collaboration and compassion of its employees on a continuous basis. The clinical opportunities are at the forefront of patient care with unique rotation opportunities in areas such as women's health, specialty pharmacy, and solid organ transplant. When initially meeting with the preceptors, it was evident they were dedicated to growing and expanding upon the resident's clinical skills while challenging the resident along the way. I knew TCH would be the right institution for advancing my leadership abilities after meeting with the HSPAL program leadership. Being an HSPAL resident at a pediatric institution allows me to provide a different perspective to the collaborative element we have within The Houston Program.

Why did you choose Texas Children’s Hospital? After completing a rotation at Texas Children's Hospital during my final year of pharmacy school, I was impressed by the caliber and diversity of the pharmacists and medical team. Additionally, Texas Children's cares for patients from all over the world which provides many opportunities to see less common pathogens. Beyond this, Grant and Brittany, who serve as the RPD and RPC for the PGY2-ID program, are extremely knowledgeable, kind, and encourage residents to grow to their full potential. I knew they would strive to make my PGY2 year a great learning experience.
