About
Currently, I am a 1PD pharmacy student at the University of Florida, Gainesville campus and looking for an opportunity to receive financial support for my further graduate professional program. I am a MS in Pharmaceutical nanotechnology graduate, with a major in research and development experience in pharmaceuticals. While working in the R&D labs, I found my interest in clinical therapy management to serve as a pharmacist in patient-centred care and counselling. I understood that medication and disease management are the most important tools while designing a clinical therapy plan for individual patient care. So here I am, stepping towards my dream and concentrating on the necessary healthcare practices. Thank you very much for providing this opportunity to explain myself and support my dreams!
I appreciate your time and consideration!

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I see myself after graduation as a clinical pharmacist. I would like to focus on the patient in need and provide better support on disease management.
- Graduate school interests
I am a current member of PediaGator and APhA-ASP (American Pharmacists Association - Academy of Student Pharmacists). Both of these organisations are involved in patient-centred care in general. I like to study more about pediatric medicinal treatment so I would focus more towards it. We have many volunteering activities to help patients who require additional care. So my major interest in the clinical field will be specified at the end of 3PD (third year) of Pharmacy.
- Outside the classroom
State-level field hockey champion, badminton player, singing and dancing, travelling - love adventures like hiking, trekking and river-rafting.
