Joyner was appointed the associate dean for professional education at the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy in 1998 and executive associate dean in 2010. She joined the School in 1996 as the director of external professional programs. As executive associate dean, her responsibilities encompass the Office of Professional Education — including student affairs, the curriculum, and the professional experience program — as well as new professional education initiatives.
Joyner received both a BS in pharmacy and a master’s degree in hospital pharmacy from the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy. In 1995, she received her doctor of education from North Carolina State University.
For much of her early career, Joyner practiced at the Wake Area Health Education Center at Wake Medical Center, first as codirector and then as director of pharmacy education. She has been a member of the School faculty since shortly after receiving her bachelor’s degree.
Joyner’s research focuses on pharmacy education and rural pharmacy practice. She has been actively involved in state and national professional organizations including the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy, American Society of Heath-System Pharmacists, American College of Clinical Pharmacy, and the North Carolina Association of Pharmacists. Joyner was recognized as a fellow of the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists in 1991 and was selected to participate in the 2007–2008 AACP Academic Leadership Fellows Program.
