Summary

As a dedicated Pharmacy Manager, I have led with integrity, compassion, and precision in a fast-paced healthcare environment. My role involves overseeing daily pharmacy operations, ensuring regulatory compliance, managing inventory, mentoring junior staff, and most importantly, providing safe and personalized care to every patient. With years of experience in both clinical and managerial capacities, I have developed a deep understanding of how to communicate clearly, think critically, and support people from all walks of life.


Now, as I work toward completing a 300-hour TEFL course, I am excited to apply these transferable skills in a new context - education. My passion for language, learning, and helping others grow has inspired this transition, and I am eager to bring the same dedication I’ve shown in healthcare to the classroom. This journey reflects my lifelong commitment to service, learning, and empowering others whether through health or education.
