Chris has been a consummate leader in pharmacy practice since arriving in Idaho to start his PGY1 Residency at Saint Alphonsus Medical Center from Purdue University. After completing his residency, he stayed on with Saint Al's to start their ED Pharmacy Program and now helps guide the PGY1 program that has grown from two to now four residents.

Why ISHP? - Chris in his own words:

Moving to Idaho and starting my career here, I was looking for something that would allow me to stay active in the profession and connect with a variety of people. I first encountered ISHP during my residency year, having joined the Education Committee and participated in conference development.  Having established a lot of great friendships throughout the year and feeling a sense of professional satisfaction, I chose to stay involved and soon found myself joining the Board of Directors as Education Chair.  ISHP's mission of promoting the highest levels of pharmacy practice by its members is something I personally connect with and believe we have a responsibility to give back to the profession in our own capable ways.
