Why did you join CAPSI?

I joined CAPSI to get involved within the pharmacy community and to make friends with similar interests. I love utilizing my organizational/planning skills and also working with others so it really was a no brainer that CAPSI would be a perfect fit for me! I also LOVED my local Sr. and Jr. CAPSI reps during my 1st year so I really wanted to work with them, now here we are!

If you were to marry a drug, what would it be and why?

I would marry Rabeprazole because it’s dependable, effective, and trustworthy. I need a husband to be a morning person and Rabeprazole fulfills that requirement! 😉
