I am a licensed pharmacist in Connecticut. I am a part of many professional organizations in my field, but I needed an outlet for non-pharmacy matters. CTYP has been a wonderful resource for both my professional and personal life. With so many different members, I have made multiple new business and social contacts. I’ve been able to grow my network, and I’ve also made many new friends. Through CTYP I found potential subletters for my apartment, I connected to other healthcare professionals outside my field, and I met influential leaders whose advice helped further my career. CTYP has brought me closer to meeting my goals in so many ways. I highly recommend joining CTYP – there’s something here for everyone!
