Who are you?

I’m Jamie. I enjoy being outdoors and surrounded by friends, but I also like being alone in my room watching Netflix. People tend to say I’m a kid at heart, and I have a charm that no other can beat when it comes to making others smile. If I had to pick 3 words to describe myself, it would be free-flying, hard-working, and perfectionist. Talk to me or say Hi? :)

Where are you from?

I am from San Jose, California, but I currently reside in Boston, Massachusetts. I’m always flying back and forth between the two cities, although I have no idea where life will fly me next.

What do you do?

I am a P4 (4th year grad) student at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy in Boston. I am also a pharmacy intern at two of New England’s hospitals. I am currently on rotation as a final student, and will be receiving my doctorate in pharmacy in May 2017.

What are you passionate about?

I am passionate about the outdoor activities such as hiking, swimming, kayaking, and whitewater rafting. I love playing the piano, although I’m not as good as I used to be. My favorite swim style is butterfly like Michael Phelps. I like to drink white wine and eat different styles of food. I am also passionate about learning and education, thus I went into health care knowing that I will forever be a student.



What is your dream job (real or fantasy)?

My dream job; actually I’m working to attain it now, but it’s basically to become a clinical pharmacy specialist in infectious diseases. I really like working with antibiotics, antivirals, and antifungals.



If it were something besides my profession, my dream job would be to become a high-end fashion designer.

If you could change the world with one idea, what would it be?

Moral idea: Be honest and straightforward with one another, because at one point, everything that is a lie will become light and no one will trust you ever again.



Inventive idea: I would change the world by finding a vaccination for HIV and Hepatitis C.
