I am a geriatric pharmacist and aging researcher. My previous research <br /> portfolio focused on medication safety and dementia care in older nursing home residents and <br /> aging adults. <br /> Please explain your reasons for wanting to serve on this board <br /> I am interested in being more involved in the community in a way that is aligned with my <br /> professional skills and interests. I recently transitioned from academia to working in <br /> pharmaceutical industry but would like to keep my foot in the door with an aging related <br /> volunteer position. <br /> How would your particpation on this board contribute to the diversity of viewpoints? <br /> I would bring expertise as a researcher and family member to aging parents. My research <br /> frequently engaged nursing home residents, older adults, healthcare providers, and caregivers <br /> to discuss key issues affecting their care. <br /> Do you have any personal or business interest(s) that could create a conflict of interest <br /> (either real or perceived) if you are appointed to this board? <br /> Boards/Commissions appointments: <br /> Other Comments: <br /> This application was current on: 10/11/2025 6:17:07 PM Date Printed: 10/13/2025 <br />
