Why WVU Medicine:
I chose WVU Medicine because this is my home! Growing up in Morgantown I always knew this was where I wanted to work. As a pharmacy intern, APPE student, and current PGY-2 pediatric resident, I have had tremendous growth at this institution and owe it all to the preceptors. I knew at WVU Children's I would have numerous learning opportunities that would shape me into the future pediatric pharmacist I always hoped to be. I am very excited to see what the next year brings!
