Why UAMS? Before applying for residencies, I made a list of everything that was important to me, both professionally and personally, and UAMS had everything I wanted – and then some! I knew I wanted a program that had a wide range of unique rotation opportunities available to help me decide what to specialize in as well as plenty of co-residents to rely on and a supportive Residency Advisory Committee. I was very fortunate to have worked with the UAMS clinical pharmacists and their residents as a student intern and APPE student and was familiar with their team dynamic and rapport. Every time I would talk to previous residents, they were always emphatic about how great their program was, and it made me want to be a part of it! Additionally, one of my interests is academia, so UAMS’s Teaching Certificate Program provides a wonderful opportunity for teaching and precepting students. I am so grateful to have matched at UAMS and I look forward to a great year of learning and growth!
