Our Story
We're just a couple of childhood friends with dreams to paint the world more colorful.
Memory Pharm was founded by two childhood friends, Michele and Jenna. We have known each other for over 20 years, only living five minutes from each other while growing up. Even as our lives went separate ways after high school, we always came back together for holidays, birthdays, and other momentous occasions. Never in our wildest dreams did we think we would reunite to pursue something so impactful.
As Michele progressed through pharmacy school, she looked for better ways to learn the material. Today, as a pharmacist, she still has to study to continue practicing. Meanwhile, Jenna was considering leaving the art design world to pursue business operations. The timing was uncanny. Several video chats and phone calls later, the idea for Memory Pharm formed.
At Memory Pharm, we are always exploring new ways to elevate the learning experience. We want to make learning as fun and engaging as possible. We are continuously testing old and new education models that make the approach to learning medicine entertaining and effective.
Education is for improving the lives of others and leaving your community and world better than you found it.
