Jessica Heald, President

Hi! My name is Jess (she/her) and I am honoured to be your QPSA President for 2023. This year I will be completing the final year of my Bachelor of Pharmacy (Honours), and what a journey it has been! Some of my QPSA career highlights have been trips to NAPSA Congress in Newcastle and Canberra, heading down to the Gold Coast for APP Conference, and witnessing real change at our campus after feedback sessions with the university.  Pharmacy has proven to be such an enriching experience for me, and I look forward to sharing these opportunities with all of you.
As your QPSA President, I am responsible for the management of our organisation. A day in my life could include meeting with sponsors, liaising with the national team (NAPSA), working with our talented committee to bring you the very best events, or a myriad of other things. If there is one constant in my day to day, it is a heap of emails! 
My favourite thing about my role is the people, so please come and say hello if you see me around PACE – I am always easy to spot as the tall blonde who will most likely be drinking an iced caramel latte. 
I am looking forward to another sensational year for QPSA.
Sincerely, Jessica Heald 

Priscilla Daniells, Secretary

Hi! I’m Priscilla (she/her), and I am stoked to be your 2023 QPSA Secretary! As secretary, I am responsible for general administration, sponsorships, and the governance of our QPSA memberships. If you have any queries or concerns, I am your go-to girl @secretary@qpsa.com.au or via the ‘Contact Us’ panel on our website home page! I am enthused to work with our executive team and committee this year to bring our members and wider community several awesome events throughout the year. My personal long-time favourite events that you should be sure to be around for include our annual Scrub Crawl, OTC and Counselling Nights and Vampire Cup. On top of this, I am MOST excited for our 75th Annual Pharmacy Ball this year in September, see you there! Outside of university, you can catch me running tracks at Mt Cootha, climbing mountains or chilling out in a hammock while camping somewhere. I am super approachable and love to have a chat, so please say hello or flash your gorgeous pearly-whites (for our international students – this means ‘to smile’) at me if you see me around! ​

Max Thompson, Treasurer

Hello! My name is Zain and I am honoured to be QPSA's Treasurer for the 2022 term. 
I am a Fourth Year Student here at the School of Pharmacy doing a Major in Clinical and Experimental Therapeutics. I generally work behind the scenes and manage QPSA's accounts and other financial matters including organising funding for all of our great social events and merchandise that is planned by the committee in which I previously worked as a Merchandise Representative. 
Outside of QPSA I am a huge fan of Rock and Metal music (the heavier the better), you will often see me around PACE wearing a shirt from one of my favourite bands and am always ready to talk music. I am also in a band myself as a Bass player. I enjoy my sports as well being a fan of Formula One Racing, West Ham United and the New York Knicks. I am sure that 2022 will be a great year, and I am looking forward to playing my part to promote Pharmacy at UQ and beyond by building upon what my predecessors have already done for this wonderful organisation. QPSA has provided me with so many great opportunities and I am sure it will for you as well! If you have any questions relating to financials or otherwise, feel free to contact me at treasurer@qpsa.com.au or conversely come up and strike a conversation with me if you see me around the place!​

Isabella Bautista, Internal Communications

Hello! I’m Isa (she/her), and I am the Internal Communications executive for 2023! I’m mainly behind the scenes making sure everything within the committee runs smoothly, but you will definitely see me out and about at PACE, St Lucia, and everywhere in between. If you need anything organised or want to spread the word, I'm your girl! I’ve been involved with QPSA since my first year in 2020, and I am unbelievably excited for this year to come - our education events will be back and better than ever, our award-winning social events are already in the works, and keep your eyes peeled for our merchandise drop! Whenever I’m not studying or working, I’m out on the hockey fields, reading in bed, painting or drawing, or attempting to learn how to play another instrument. If you want to get in touch, email me at internalcommunications@qpsa.com.au, or find the Contact Us section on this website. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Our Previous Executive Teams

We would like to thank our predecessors for their work and wish them the very best in their future endeavours. ​
