We would like to congratulate our president-elect Ron Kuiper and our secretary/treasurer-elect Mikayla Turner. Both become SWPA’s officers and will work closely with current officers holding those roles to facilitate the transition.
Ron: Hi, I am Ron Kuiper. I have been a member of S.W.P.A for over 20 years and have served in various officer positions over the years. I currently work at OHSU CHH1 as the outpatient pharmacy supervisor. Previously, I had worked for both Fred Meyer and Hi School pharmacy in the Vancouver area, which is still where I live and call home. I believe SWPA is the perfect pharmacy trifecta: Food, Friends and professional growth. (you pick the order)
Mikayla : Hi, I’m Mikayla Turner, a fourth-year PharmD candidate. I’m thrilled to take on the role of Secretary/Treasurer for the Southwest Pharmacy Association this year! I’m passionate about advancing the pharmacy profession, and I’m excited for the opportunities to collaborate, advocate, and grow professionally in this new role. Thank you all for your support—I’m looking forward to a great year ahead!
