Amy Nham is the first student to graduate with the dual degree of doctor of pharmacy (PharmD) from the USC School of Pharmacy and master of public health (MPH) from the Keck School of Medicine of USC. As a first-generation student, she\u2019s used to forging her own path.
\nNham was born and raised in S\u00f3c Tr\u0103ng, a small city in southern Vietnam. Each of her parents has only a fifth-grade education due to economic barriers, so they left behind the familiar when Nham was 6 years old and immigrated to the United States in search of better opportunities.
\n\u201cAt that age, you don\u2019t really know what it means to move to a new country where people don\u2019t speak the same language as you,\u201d Nham said of the transition. \u201cI remember being very flustered all the time.\u201d
\nThey spent a year in Wisconsin before settling in Alhambra, where the family welcomed two more daughters. Her mother now works as a nail technician, and her father is a machine operator on weekdays and an electrician on weekends.
\n\u201cMy parents have always believed that education is the way out of poverty,\u201d Nham said. \u201cThey really emphasized its importance because they wanted life to be easier for us than it was for them.\u201d
\n 
\nTraveling as a Health Career Training Ground<\/strong>
\nNham set her eyes on a career in health during high school. She honed in on pharmacy after realizing that direct interaction with patients was her priority, and chose to attend USC for its pre-pharmacy program.
\nIn college, she studied abroad twice: first in London with the USC Global Health and Social Medicine program and then on a scholarship to Shanghai for a globalization class. These experiences opened her eyes to how social determinants of health have affected her own family, and sparked an interest in public health. Beyond satisfying her wanderlust, she also credits her travels as a valuable training ground for a health career.
\n\u201cEven though I\u2019m in pharmacy school, I think there are so many ways to approach health than with just medicine,\u201d she said. \u201cSeeing what other people\u2019s priorities, food, customs are like helps you be more open-minded and understanding when you\u2019re dealing with different people in your future practice.\u201d
\nFinishing her undergraduate studies in just three years, Nham enrolled in the USC School of Pharmacy because the school\u2019s commitment to serving the community aligned with her own. Holding true to that commitment, she served as co-president of\u00a0PharmSC Clinic<\/a>, a student organization that provides free health screenings in East Los Angeles.
\nA year into pharmacy school, still curious about the impact of socioeconomic status on health, she applied to the PharmD\/MPH dual-degree program.
\n\u201cNavigating it was quite stressful because I was the first to do it \u2026 I almost had to make my own curriculum and get it approved,\u201d she said with a laugh.
\nDespite the demanding workload, she has continued to travel, completing several of her Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPE) across the country. She excelled in her rotations with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and the Food and Drug Administration in Silver Spring, Maryland.
\n\u201cIt was hard to juggle it all and I sometimes do wonder if it was all worth it,\u201d Nham said. \u201cBut if I\u2019m able to help patients with my knowledge and expertise, then that\u2019s invaluable.\u201d
\n 
\nA Commitment to Underserved Populations<\/strong>
\nTime and time again, Nham has carved her own path. After graduating in May, instead of completing a residency at Kaiser Permanente \u2014 where she has worked as a pharmacy intern for the past four years \u2014 she has chosen a residency with\u00a0Indian Health Service<\/a>, a federal program that assists American Indians and Alaska Natives, which comes with a significant pay cut. Her new home base is in Whitewater, Arizona, within the Fort Apache Indian Reservation in Navajo County. The closest city is more than a three-hour drive away.
\n\u201cI think it\u2019ll be a humbling experience,\u201d Nham said. \u201cThe American Indians and Alaska Natives have so many barriers against them in terms of accessing good health; you really have to deal with all the other challenges they\u2019re facing and assess each patient holistically.\u201d
\nAlthough she has wrestled with the decision over the past year for financial reasons, she is prioritizing her passion to work with underprivileged populations.
\nEventually she plans to work as an ambulatory care pharmacist and potentially in a public health organization, where she can make a big impact.
\n\u201cAmy has always been guided by her passion to serve the health needs of the underserved,\u201d said Susie Park<\/a>, PharmD, associate dean for student affairs at the USC School of Pharmacy. \u201cIn the truest sense, she embodies the Oath of a Pharmacist.\u201d
