I am a lifelong resident of Massachusetts and completed my pharmacy degree at Northeastern University in Boston, MA. Currently, I work as the Director of Retail Pharmacy Services for Beth Israel Lahey Health. In this role I oversee the operation of our 5 retail pharmacy locations in Massachusetts. Our pharmacies are integrated within the healthcare system of Beth Israel Lahey health and service both patients and employees throughout the Commonwealth. Prior to this role some of my previous positions include working as a Director for Genoa Healthcare overseeing their pharmacies located within community Mental Health Centers, as well as Pharmacy District Manager roles with Albertson’s (Shaw’s and Star Market), and Rite Aid. I have also served as a Board Member on the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Pharmacy.

 

I believe it is helpful and important to have someone with my diverse pharmacy experiences that allow me to bring additional insight and knowledge to our decision-making processes when dealing with public safety and healthcare concerns. My experiences both in health system pharmacies as well as traditional retail pharmacies allow me to evaluate and understand a broad range of issues that can arise in todays pharmacy environments.
