Lyle Powell
Junior Representative
Educational background:
Three and a half years at UVic in microbiology, and looking
forward to my graduation in 2010!
Goals for the year:
My main goal for this year and my future as CAPSI Senior is to
inform the students on what CAPSI can do for them.
From PDW, to the compounding, OTC, interview and literary
competitions, to the CAPSI symposia, I believe there is a lot
for CAPSI members to get out of their short time in Pharmacy school.I look forward to working and learning from
Allen all there is to know so all the CAPSI events such as
Jeopardy or sweet revenge run even better each year.
Also I look forward to working with the
members who are going to make the over 5000 km trek to PDW this
year on the opposite side of the country in
St John’s.
Interest in pharmacy: Yes... but too many options to
choose from...
When I have free time: Catch up on
school or emails…. Or going for a bike ride on one of the few
sunny days here. |

Before entering pharmacy, I completed 3 years of a
Chemistry major at

Rivers

one of Canada’s most
unique provinces.

in Kamloops, I love to take walks around town with friends,
playing with my nephew, weekends at the lake, and taking random
drives out to neighbouring rural cities.
