Celeste Cheung

UConn School of Pharmacy, Class of 2018


I was born in Hong Kong and raised in Sandy Hook, Connecticut. I currently work at an independent pharmacy in Georgetown, Connecticut where one of our responsibilities includes providing and delivering medications to a senior assisted living center. We like to ensure that the elderly there are able to receive their needed medications despite their health condition or other barriers that limit them to do so.

In high school, I was involved in several volunteer organizations such as Best Buddies and Special Olympics which were both aimed at serving those with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I believe that those who are fortunate enough to have good health and the ability to do whatever activity they please, should help those who are less fortunate and aren’t as lucky to have the same opportunities.

By being a part of the Urban Service Track, I hope to continue to help and provide for underserved populations while expanding my own skills in primary care. I aim to improve and hopefully make a lasting difference in a community alongside a team of other professionals.
