Upon graduation, he completed a Community-Based PGY-1 residency with Purdue University’s College of Pharmacy and Mathes Diabetes Center in New Albany, IN. He then moved to Lafayette, IN to complete Purdue’s two-year Academic and Ambulatory Care Pharmacy Fellowship program where he taught in Purdue’s Pharmacy Skills Lab courses, led an elective course focused on care for vulnerable and underserved patient populations, and practiced as an ambulatory care pharmacist at a rural Federally Qualified Health Center.
