I’m truly honored and blessed to be recognized as this year’s recipient of the College of Pharmacy PharmD/PhD Scholarship. I would really like to thank the graduate committee and Dean Chisholm-Burns for this scholarship. I would also like to express gratitude to Dr. Richard Lee for his guidance and support through this past year.”
