Nicole Davoren

UConn School of Pharmacy - Class of 2017

I was born in Hartford, Connecticut and moved to South Windsor, Connecticut five years later, where I spent the majority of my life. In high school I visited Managua, Nicaragua on a Mission Trip. Ever since then, I have been interested in working with underserved populations. At UConn, I became very involved in the Alpha Lambda Delta National Honor Society and am currently the Vice President, from which position I have helped organize the society’s many community service initiatives. We participate in many community service activities such as Red Cross Blood Drives, Relay for Life, and HuskyTHON, and each semester we hold a large fundraising event to support a community or healthcare organization in need. As a pharmacy intern at Walgreens, I enjoy working closely with the public and striving to provide them with the optimal level of care. I am interested in joining the Urban Service Track in order to positively impact the lives of those in underserved populations and to work in an interprofessional team with students from other healthcare and associated fields. Becoming an Urban Health Scholar will help me to learn valuable skills I will need as a pharmacist and to realize my goal of providing health care and community services to underserved populations.
