98. From a Technical Certification to Career Success: Celebrating National Pharmacy Technician Day

  • Summary

  • What if the first step in your career could open doors you never imagined? Join me, as I share my journey from being a first-generation college graduate to becoming a certified pharmacy technician, to an educator and now as your Career Coach and holding a Master of Science Degree.

    This episode celebrates National Pharmacy Technician Day by honoring the crucial role of pharmacy technicians in healthcare and beyond. I recount my experiences at San Jacinto College, where I faced the challenges of navigating career choices without much guidance as a first-gen student. With the support of my first mentor, Chris LeBlanc, a registered pharmacist, I discovered the power of mentorship and envisioning a broader career path. My story underscores the transformative impact of mentorship and the importance of technical careers as vital stepping stones to achieving greater aspirations.

    Explore with me the significance of acquiring skills early on and preparing for future career opportunities. From pharmacy technician to career coach and navigator at the Pearland Innovation Hub, this is my story. It illustrates how taking that first step can lead to unexpected opportunities and new paths.

    I encourage students and aspiring professionals to dream bigger by seizing opportunities and finding the right mentors who can guide them toward achieving greater things. As we celebrate the invaluable contributions of pharmacy technicians, I express my gratitude for your ongoing support and invite you to connect on social media. Let's redefine what it means to be college and career ready, together.
