vishwa bhakta
Hello, my name is Vishwa Bhakta, and I am the fighting diabetes initiative lead for SNPhA. My hobbies are playing badminton, listening to music, and traveling. My interest in pharmacy was sparked by a desire to improve patient outcomes through medication management and a fascination with how drugs work in the body. The combination of helping others and my passion for pharmacy is what drew me to pharmacy. I joined SNPhA to be part of a community that aims to improve healthcare for underserved populations and to gain valuable experience in leadership and professional development. It also provided me with opportunities to network with peers and mentors who share a commitment to making a positive impact in the field of pharmacy.
Fun Fact: I was a national champion for badminton
