Nice to meet you! I’m Angela Zhao (she/her) from the Class of 2026. I’m looking forward to being your CAPSI Jr. Representative this year! CAPSI stands for the Canadian Association of Pharmacy Students and Interns. Together with the CAPSI Sr. representative, we represent and advocate for UAlberta at the national level. CAPSI is also responsible for some of the fun events hosted throughout the year, such as CIBC Run for the Cure, several pharmacy competitions, and Pharmacy Appreciation Month (PAM) events!

Now for a bit about me: I was born in China and moved to Calgary when I was 1. Before starting pharmacy school, I completed 3 years of a BSc with Specialization in Immunology here at UAlberta. When I’m not studying, you can find me in my room playing video games, out and about looking for new cafes or restaurants to try, or curled up with a knitting or cross stitch project.

If you see me in the hallways, PBL rooms, or pharmacy events, please feel free to come and say hi! I love to chat and would be happy to talk about anything, pharmacy-related or not, and answer any questions you may have. You can also contact me through Facebook, Instagram, or email.

Here’s to a great year ahead!
