The Future is Bright for Auburn Pharmacy Student

She has her own client, she studies almost every day of the week, Ellen Marable is a first year graduate student in Auburn’s Harrison School of Pharmacy.

Marable decided she wanted to pursue a career as a pharmacist at the end of her sophomore year. “I wanted to become a pharmacist because I want people who have chronic illnesses not to think it decreases their quality of life and their value as an individual.” Marable takes her major very seriously and works hard daily to acquire the skills needed to achieve success in this field of study.

In addition to learning about her future profession in an academic setting, Marable also gains useful experience outside of the classroom. Every week she visits her client at the Auburn University Pharmacy Care Clinic and speaks with him about his medical condition and the medications he is currently taking in order to asses his disease states and treatment regimen.

Marable is a little over half way through her first semester as an Auburn graduate student and has already learned a lot about her future career. She is both excited and a little nervous about the next three years she has left at the university.
