Meet Our 2025-2026 Executive Board

Hello! I am Jadyn Gardner, NCODA’s President for the 2025-2026 academic year! My job is to run all things NCODA and I’ve had quite a bit of experience operating each and every role within our organization. I initially got involved with this organization as I have a long family history with cancer and have been interested in getting involved further with the field of oncology and specialty in general. The field of oncology is rapidly evolving with pharmacists playing an integral role at the center, which makes it an academically challenging and fulfilling career choice! Our goal as an organization is to get students further acquainted and connected within the field of oncology. Please reach out to me or other members of NCODA to learn more!

Hello! My name is Gabi Kalita, and I’m a third-year pharmacy student currently serving as Vice President on the NCODA E-Board. In my role, I support both the President and President-Elect in chapter functions, while also coordinating our Drug of the Week infographics. I joined NCODA to deepen my understanding of oncology pharmacy, a rapidly evolving field. The Drug of the Week initiative is a fantastic way to learn about and share information on new oncology medications. I’m excited to continue building on this resource for others!

Hi everyone! My name is Jade Murphy. I am currently a P2 student and serving as President-Elect for NCODA this year. My role is to execute any duties that NCODA’s President, Jadyn, requests me to fulfill as well as guide the P1 Liaison through their position on the executive board. During my time as President-Elect, I will be advocating for NCODA by consistently promoting all national events, webinars, and opportunities that arise. I joined NCODA because I have a strong desire to make an impact in the Oncology field. I want to help contribute to creating more innovative treatment options for patients that can continue to reduce the lingering side effects that they may face during their cancer treatment journey. 

Hello! My name is Jessica Wojcik, a third-year student, and I am NCODA’s secretary for this academic year. As secretary, I am in charge of the weekly emails and communications sent out to the student body. I initially became involved with NCODA because of Jadyn inviting me to the GBMs. From there I got interested in the topics and research surrounding oncology and since then have been involved with NCODA. I love helping people get involved and assisting them in trying to achieve their goals whether that be getting used to presenting or improving their writing skills. Don’t hesitate to reach out to me or any of the other members if you have any questions!

Hello! My name is Jaleel Williams, a third-year student, and I am NCODA’s treasurer for the 2025-26 academic school year. As the treasurer, I am responsible for maintaining NCODA’s finances and am involved in generating further revenue for the organization. I initially became interested in NCODA upon a mention of the organization during my interview for the College of Pharmacy. I have always had a keen interest in oncology since a close family friend was unfortunate enough to be afflicted with cancer in the early 2010s. I joined NCODA because I want to further my knowledge of what the field has to offer and because I think there is so much untapped potential within the field. Let’s all do our best!

Hi everyone! I’m Amjad Madkhali, a P2 pharmacy student and NCODA’s Director of Programming. In my role, I design flyers for our GBMs, coordinate and secure speakers, and collaborate with our Webmaster to manage NCODA’s social media presence. I joined NCODA because I’m passionate about making a meaningful difference in the lives of cancer patients and contributing to initiatives that promote education, support, and advocacy in oncology care.

Hello everyone! My name is Mai Nguyen and I am the Webmaster for NCODA for the 2025-2026 academic year. My role involved working closely with other members in the team to keep the NCODA website up-to-date with news, events, or opportunities that you can be a part in! I became interested in oncology after learning about the crucial impact of pharmacogenomics and precision medicines in patient care. I’m excited to enhance NCODA’s online presence and ensure we connect with our community in the most meaningful ways!
