1. Everyone’s leadership road is a little different, what was your leadership journey through the career quiz, ASHP, APHA, PLS/Rho Chi and so forth

1c. Can you tell more about the interprofessional “Dawn” clinic?

2. Tell me about CA-HEC and how they work with medical and pharmacy students to help you with your APPE rotations, I think you’re in Alamosa, Colorado.

3. How do students use AirB&B for rotations now and you mentioned there are ways to get discounts.

4. You mentioned you were really excited about a rotation in Dublin, Ireland and you mentioned there’s another one in Galway, can you tell me how you go set up with that and what you’re looking forward to?

5. I’ll play devil’s advocate, what’s the point of going abroad?

6. 6. How have do split and use social media between professional and personal?

7.What do you hope to do after your fourth year? You mentioned residency PGY-1, PGY-2, and an interest in rural health care.

8. How have you narrowed down your list of residency choices and whom do you turn to for advice?

9. 9. Looking back, what parts of the pharmacy opportunities out there that you didn’t know about before?

10. Can you explain the difference between ambulatory care and community pharmacy for some of our listeners who are thinking about pharmacy as a profession?

11. How do you prefer people contact you?
