Brittany is the founder and President of SIS. She grew up in Arizona as a second-generation Kenyan American. She has always had a strong desire to help others.

She is now a clinical ambulatory care pharmacist with a specialty in HIV/AIDS.
One of her long-term goals is to start a charity to help aspiring girls and women to better their communities. This non-profit is important to me because I want to be able to provide opportunities to my fellow counterparts. Currently there are more women pursuing pharmacy careers, however, in other programs there is still an overarching male presence. I don't want women to feel like they can't or shouldn't pursue STEM careers because we aren't represented as much.
