Molly – Pharmacist
Molly was born and raised in the South Puget Sound. While attending Bellarmine Preparatory School she began her early pharmacy career by working at the independent Cost Less Pharmacy in Fircrest. As her education continued at Washington State University, so did her growth in the pharmacy career. Molly graduated from Washington State University’s College of Pharmacy in 2013 with her Doctorate in Pharmacy, alongside her classmate and friend, Tyler Young!

After graduation Molly worked full-time, but continued to feel a calling back to her roots at an independent pharmacy that better served the public. As Molly’s family started to grow, she reconnected with Tyler and had the privilege of joining the Vashon team in 2017, months after the birth of her first daughter. She currently works part-time at Vashon and spends the rest of her time raising her two daughters and spending time with her husband. She is extremely thankful for her pharmacy team and the whole Vashon community that welcomed her in and back to a great career working at this wonderful independent pharmacy.
