SOUTHEAST PROVINCE
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 2026/2027
Satrap
Dr. Sabrina Desmond, Orlando Grad
What inspired you to join Kappa Psi?
My initial inspiration to join Kappa Psi came during a rush event centered around our pillar for Industry. During Epsilon Mu's Industry rush event, I was able to listen to several different Graduate Brothers from various specialties talk about their daily lives. What stood out to me the most during this event was not be variety of pharmacists that we heard from, but rather the way they interacted with each other. The Brothers all came from different initiation classes, but the obvious bond between them all was strikingly apparent.
It was here that I first glimpsed the long standing impact that Kappa Psi can have on a person.
These weren't just classmates that interacted on the same campus together. Some of them never even went to school at the same time. It was this sense of community that stuck out to me and had me eager to pursue membership.
What is your favorite part about being a Brother of Kappa Psi?
My favorite part has to be the endless opportunities that I've had to better myself as a pharmacist and as a person. Between my involvement on various different fraternal levels, I've been able to gain experience that has been invaluable to my progress as a professional, especially in such a short time frame. More importantly, my interactions within the fraternity have helped me become a more empathetic, open-minded, and trustworthy person.
What is one goal you have for the province this year?
My goal this year is to lead by example for all of the Brothers in the Southeast Province. With this goal, I aim to reinforce the expectation that there is no task too large or too small for a Brother to accomplish in order to support the greater mission we all strive to achieve.
Vice-Satrap
Victoria Marshall, Zeta Gamma
What inspired you to join Kappa Psi?
Joining Kappa Psi was never part of my original plan. During my first year of pharmacy school, I wasn’t able to attend Rush events, and I assumed the opportunity had simply passed me by. But the day before BID day, one of the brothers took the time to sit down with me and truly get to know me, not just as a potential member, but as a person. She asked about my goals, my dreams, and what I wanted most out of life. My answer was simple: I wanted to build a family. Having been largely independent since I was 18 and living far from my own family in Pennsylvania, that sense of belonging was something I deeply longed for. Through the pledging process, something shifted. I found myself surrounded by people who cared about me beyond the classroom. In that process, I realized Kappa Psi was the beginning of the family I had been searching for.
What is your favorite part about being a Brother of Kappa Psi?
My favorite part of being a Brother is the people and the relationships that grow from this shared experience. Kappa Psi brings together individuals who challenge each other to become better professionals, stronger leaders, and more compassionate people. Over time, those relationships become a support system.
What is one goal you have for the province this year?
One of my goals for the province this year is to continue strengthening the sense of connection and unity among our chapters beyond just the pledging and initiation process. While those moments are important milestones, the true value of Kappa Psi is built in the relationships and growth that continue long after.
Secretary

What inspired you to join Kappa Psi?
I joined Kappa Psi Pharmaceutical Fraternity, Inc. because I wanted to be part of a community that supports professional growth, leadership, and service in pharmacy. The strong sense of brotherhood and the opportunity to grow alongside passionate future pharmacists really inspired me to get involved. It felt like a place where I could develop both personally and professionally while giving back to the profession.
What is your favorite part about being a Brother of Kappa Psi?
My favorite part of being a brother of Kappa Psi is the sense of brotherhood and support. Being surrounded by people who share the same passion for pharmacy while encouraging each other to grow personally and professionally makes it really meaningful. It’s also rewarding to work together on service and leadership opportunities that make an impact in our community.
What is one goal you have for the province this year?
One goal I have for the province this year is to strengthen collaboration and connection between chapters and I hope to encourage more communication, shared events, and support so that brothers across the province can learn from each other and grow together professionally and personally.

Chaplain
Adam DiMercurio, Zeta Gamma
What inspired you to join Kappa Psi?
I wanted to join Kappa Psi because I saw how welcoming the Brothers were during my first year of pharmacy school. It was clear that the Brothers all had a special connection to each other, and I wanted to be a part of that group. I was also interested in the networking opportunities that Kappa Psi offered to its members, given how many fields our Brothers specialize in.
What is your favorite part about being a Brother of Kappa Psi?
Forming the cohesive bonds that make us great. My favorite part is working as a new member educator to help guide people through the process of joining and welcome them into the Fraternity. Watching a group of potential members overcome challenges and adversity in the process of joining is both rewarding and inspiring for established Brothers.
What is one goal you have for the province this year?
This year, I want to foster greater collaboration between Chapters. Working to promote and advertise our events such as rush and initiation can help increase our intra-Province bonds and demonstrate the strength of our commitment to fellowship.
Parliamentarian
Aaron Chung, Savannah Grad
What area of pharmacy do you work in or are interested in working?
I am pursuing an PGY1 Residency focused in ambulatory care. I am interested in anticoagulation and diabetes management.
Why did you join Kappa Psi?
I had a positive undergrad fraternity experience, so I wanted to check out Kappa Psi once we got the chance to join orgs on South's campus. I enjoyed interacting with the brothers already in, and I had a couple of friend's RUSH with me. It quickly felt like home and the rest is history.
What advice do you have for the first-year pharmacy students?
Pharmacy school is like riding a bike. Except the bike is on fire, you're on fire, everything's on fire (It is what it is). But remember. You have others pedaling that bike with you every day. Find people that match your speed, then the ride doesn't seem so bad.
Newsletter Editor
Jermaine Allen, Zeta Phi
What inspired you to join Kappa Psi?
It was something that I had to think long and hard of. I was looking for a fraternity that not only had everything I would expect from a professional fraternity. I found that at my chapter the brothers had been more then helpful to everyone on campus, and it is something be admired. Knowing all of them has been very eye opening seeing the amount of leadership and mentorship roles they had all taken. These were the things that made me interested in becoming a member. As I continued to be affiliated with the Fraternity, I realized it was not a membership but more of a Brotherhood. I knew that these brothers are all meant to do great things and will pave the road for future leaders. I knew that this is something not meant to make it easy but to push you and make you step your game up every step of the way until you reached the summit.
What is your favorite part about being a Brother of Kappa Psi?
Knowing that this is something bigger than myself it is comprised of Brothers who are not paid to do what they do, these are self-driven individuals who push themselves as well as others to be the greatest version of themselves. That in a room of Brothers from different chapters and provinces can form a connection and be close and still welcome any new Brother who enters. That those who crossed long before, have never wavered to be there to this today.
What is one goal you have for the province this year?
My goal for this year is to make my brothers proud as I take the wisdom of those before me and what I bring to the table as we incorporate it into our ideals as we make way for future leaders.
