Our Pharmacist, Jamie


Jamie Danelo graduated from WSU pharmacy school in 2007. After graduation she moved to Boston to work at Mass General Hospital to experience another hospital. While there, she got a call to see if she would like to join HHNW. She accepted and returned this year for her second visit. She enjoys this mission because she enjoys problem solving and being flexible with equipment, supplies and medications here in Rwanda. Teaching the hospital staff and working with George Shortis of the Australian heart team to help this program become self sufficient is also important to her. Jamie loves traveling and doing medical missions is a way to experience life beyond Spokane. This past year she joined a group from WSU and went to Ecuador. She hopes to go to Guatemala this May. She has the bug!

  1. Jamie's enthusiasm and energy are legend among the HHNW crew, as well as in Boston. (Last year, she stayed up her first night in country, after a 36 hour trip, organizing and cataloging the group's meds. Then went out for an infamous Jamie-party afterwards!) Jamie, you make me tired THINKING of your unbounded energies!
