Why I chose to practice in Grand Rapids
I love practicing at Trinity Health Grand Rapids because I believe in our mission-driven work and feel that those values are evident in all our coworkers. Our pharmacy team supports one another and strive to do what is best for the patients we serve.
I also love the Grand Rapids area - it really does have everything you might want to do (concert venues, breweries, museums, etc.) while still being only 30 minutes from Lake Michigan.
Hobbies/interests outside of work
I spend most of my time with my husband, daughter, and two sweet dogs. I love travel, reading, cooking, camping, gardening, and home design.
