Pharmacy Student and teaching assistant
Marshall B. Ketchum University
Santa Ana, California, United States
I am a dedicated healthcare professional currently pursuing a Doctor of Pharmacy degree at Marshall B. Ketchum University (MBKU) in Fullerton, California. My educational journey began with an M.D. degree from Iran University of Medical Science (IUMS) in Tehran, Iran, followed by a High School Diploma in Mathematics and Physics from the National Organization for Development of Exceptional Talents (NODET) in Karaj, Iran.
My qualifications include licenses and certifications such as a Pharmacy Intern License from the California Board of Pharmacy, Immunization Delivery License granted by the American Pharmacists Association (APhA), Basic Life Support (BLS) certification from the American Heart Association (AHA), and an Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) Certificate.
I have a strong research background, having worked as a Research Specialist at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) Medical Center and as a Research Assistant at the Burn Research Center in IUMS, Tehran, Iran. My research contributions have led to numerous publications covering healthcare topics, including otolaryngology, head and neck surgery, and burn injuries.
Active membership in professional organizations such as the American Pharmacist Association (APhA), California Pharmacist Association (CPhA), American Society of Health System Pharmacists (ASHP), and California Society of Health-System Pharmacists (CSHP) reflects my commitment to the field. I've also held leadership roles in Phi Lambda Sigma (PLS) and Phi Delta Chi (PDC), including positions like Vice President, Historian, President, and Worthy Correspondent.
In addition to my professional pursuits, I have dedicated my time to community service, including volunteering in COVID vaccination efforts and providing healthcare services to the homeless.
I am honored to have received the United States Public Health Service (USPHS) Excellence Award in 2023. My diverse background in medicine, pharmacy, research, and leadership drives my commitment to delivering patient-centered care and striving for excellence in the healthcare field.
