Tell us about your role at ISPE: What do you do each day?
My job is to raise funds for the ISPE Foundation’s pillars. Day-to-day, I partner with internal and external stakeholders to write impact stories and blogs, apply for grants, generate proposals, and disseminate quarterly appeals to ISPE members. I also plan and manage the logistics of our events, such as the annual ISPE Foundation golf tournament.
What do you love about your job?
My favorite part of my job is the opportunity to invite others into the work we do to help those in underserved groups get access to ISPE resources. Each day, I know the work I do will benefit the career trajectories of students and recent graduates, support building equity in emerging markets, and bridge other gaps within the pharmaceutical industry. To be able to share about this exciting work and let others know how they can be a part of it is truly rewarding.
What do you like to do when you are not at work?
My favorite thing to do is spend time with my husband, our puppy, and our family and friends. I also enjoy running, reading, hiking, and surfing. I recently completed my first half marathon, and met my goal to read 20 books in 2024. One of my favorites was The Great Alone, a historical fiction novel by Kristin Hannah. It’s set in the 1970s and tells the story of a family that moves to the wilderness in Alaska.
