Growing up in STL (Saint Louis) I couldn't wait to get out of town and explore wide open spaces. I attended the University of Wyoming and competed as a Division 1 Athlete in springboard and platform diving. I graduated from Pharmacy School from UW in 2007 and quickly relocated to Phoenix, Arizona to start my career as a community pharmacist specializing in HIV care.
After practicing in the corporate world for seven years, I was ready for more. I relocated to University of Missouri Health Care in 2012. I completed my Executive MBA with a focus in Health Care Leadership at the University of Tennessee - Knoxville in 2018.
After a life changing medical event in 2022, I medically retired from practicing pharmacy. In 2024, I left health care completely to pursue my next chapter of entrepreneurship. Yes, I still am licensed, but don't practice pharmacy anymore.
