The ASHP Section of Pharmacy Educators (SPE) combines my passion for pharmacy, education, and the advancement of the pharmacy workforce. Contributing to the development of the mission, vision, and strategic goals of this section as an inaugural member of the Section Executive Committee and seeing progress made thus far within the section has been rewarding. I am excited about the opportunity to continue my service to SPE and keep the momentum going for its continued success.
The mission of SPE is “to support pharmacy educators in preparing, engaging, and advancing the pharmacy workforce to optimize health.” SPE is the home for ASHP members involved in any aspect of pharmacy education. Representation and input from pharmacy educators in various roles is important to ensure we are aware of and address relevant and timely issues affecting pharmacy educators. My goal is to work collaboratively with our members, the Section Advisory Groups, and the SPE Executive Committee to ensure the section is moving in a positive direction and the needs of pharmacy educators are met.
Ensuring pharmacy graduates are well-equipped to enter the workforce, preparing pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to take on expanded and specialized roles, providing resources to support pharmacy educators, and addressing the demand for the pharmacy workforce are some critical areas of focus.
I am honored to be nominated for Chair of SPE. It would be a privilege to serve all of you and ASHP in this capacity.
