Hello everytone. I'm Javier, a pharmacy technician taking my first real steps toward building something of my own. The idea is a uniform system for pharmacy techs, inspired by the U.S. Navy's flight-crew coveralls. I'll be honest, the leap from doing the work to building a business around it is humbling. I'm here to learn from people who've walked this path, and to show up as a real teammate to anyone else figuring it out alongside me. If you're open to swapping notes, or just an encouraging word on a hard day, I'd love to connect. Thanks for having me. Javier
