Member Spotlight 🌟 Chelsea Carlson, PharmD

🎓 Chelsea Carlson’s professional journey began in public relations, with bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Northern Iowa. Chelsea earned her PharmD from the University of Iowa College of Pharmacy in 2015.

🥼 Chelsea started as a pharmacy technician at Walmart, then spent several years at Hy-Vee as an intern and pharmacist. In her current role with UnityPoint Health, Chelsea enjoys a good variety of clinic, outpatient and management work.

🤝 Chelsea’s favorite IPA experience was attending the Decker-Temple Leadership Pharmacy Conference (Class of 2025). “I would recommend attending if given the opportunity,” she said. “It was a great reset for me professionally.”

🛠️ Chelsea encourages others to get involved in IPA to stay informed and build connections. “They also have many useful tools available if you take the time to look at them.”
