Growing up, Steve St. Onge saw his grandfather working in his pharmacy and thought he would follow in his footsteps. Like his grandfather, he set out to graduate from ACPHS.  But shortly later St. Onge started following a different path.  In this episode of Occupation Station, he talks about why he decided to pursue interests both in drug development and in business, ultimately adding an MBA to his credentials.  St. Onge is now director of business development for Paratek Pharmaceuticals.  He wears a lot of hats at Paratek and says he gets great satisfaction in knowing that he is part of a team helping to deliver life-saving remedies to people in need.  The 2009 grad has great advice for ACPHS students about seeking out mentors, taking risks, and using rotations as a way to grow.  He sees a bright future for ACPHS alumni, saying the sky is the limit for those with a PharmD.
