I’m so grateful to the ACMS team for your dedication and hard work. From planning to execution, every detail reflected your commitment to making this event special for our members and honorees. A huge thank you to Nadine Popovich, Melanie M., Haley Thon, Elizabeth Yurkovich, and Michelle Jaena Lerma —you are rock stars! After a busy few months, I’m so proud of what we accomplished. And a special shoutout to The Corcoran Collective and my behind-the-scenes MVP, Patrick Hussey, PharmD, MBA. More event photos coming soon in the Allegheny County Medical Society Bulletin and on our website (thank you, Tyler Newpol, for capturing the magic!).
