As the Hamilton County Leadership Academy approaches its 25th anniversary, Current is highlighting local leaders who have helped build and sustain the program, which focuses on strengthening our community by developing informed leaders. In June, another class of engaged citizens will join the 600-plus graduates already working to make a difference.

Career: Albert is an entrepreneur, author, pharmacist, attorney and associate professor. She founded and runs two companies (Pharm, LLC and Yuspie, LLC) and works at Butler University’s College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences as Director of Continuing Education and Director of the Ribordy Center for Community Practice Pharmacy. Albert also does clinical work as a health outcomes pharmacist at Myers and Stauffer, LC.

Nice to know: Albert is working on a series of children’s books about engaging in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

Most valuable lesson learned through HCLA: “Candidly, some of the biggest lessons I learned … were what the county lacks. One group did its project on domestic violence resources available in the county, and I still cannot believe we don’t have a housing facility for victims of domestic violence. I also learned that we have a long way to go when it comes to leadership diversity. We also could use more diversity when it comes to housing. While we live in an outstanding county, there is always room for improvement. Diversity demonstrates better outcomes and even higher profits in for-profit businesses, so we need to focus on more diversity in our county to [reach]the next level.
