Get ready to ignite your inspiration at the 2025 APhA Annual Meeting & Exposition! 

Serving as the 2023–2024 APhA–ASP Region 3 Midyear Regional Meeting Coordinator (MRMC) has been one of my favorite experiences during pharmacy school. Over the past year, I gained invaluable lessons about leadership, teamwork, and the power of connection.

Sierra Schmiedt, PharmD, wanted to push herself as an individual and experience health care outside of the United States. Tony Tran, PharmD, wanted to build on a favorable study abroad experience as a high school student and visit the country of his heritage. That is how then-South Dakota State University student pharmacists ended up in Vietnam for 5 weeks for their final 2024 APPE rotations.
