Founder | CEO
CPhT & ExCPT
Roberta Steward is the Founder and Executive Director of Brilliantaires Inc Learning Institute, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preparing individuals for successful careers in pharmacy through high-quality workforce education.
A dual-certified pharmacy technician through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) and the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB), Roberta brings over 11 years of pharmacy experience spanning retail pharmacy, hospital pharmacy, LTC Pharmacy, billing, medication safety, patient care, workforce development, and technician training.
Her passion for healthcare began at just five years old when her younger brother required extensive medical care, including a feeding tube and tracheostomy. Watching healthcare professionals care for him sparked a lifelong desire to serve others and inspired her commitment to improving lives through healthcare.
Before entering pharmacy, Roberta worked as a CBRF caregiver, medical assistant, and certified phlebotomist. Although each role strengthened her clinical knowledge, pharmacy became her true passion because it combined patient care, lifelong learning, and opportunities to make a meaningful impact on people's health.
Throughout her pharmacy career, Roberta became known for mentoring and training new pharmacy technicians. As a preceptor for MATC pharmacy technician students, she discovered a passion for teaching and helping others build confidence in the profession. After successfully guiding family members, friends, and aspiring technicians into pharmacy careers, she recognized the need for accessible, high-quality training programs that prepare students for long-term success.
This vision led her to establish Brilliantaires Inc Learning Institute, where she developed a comprehensive PTCB-recognized Pharmacy Technician Training Program designed to equip students with the technical knowledge, professional skills, and confidence needed to enter the workforce and pursue national certification.
Today, Roberta continues to lead the organization with a mission of expanding access to pharmacy education, strengthening the healthcare workforce, and creating pathways to economic mobility for individuals throughout Wisconsin and beyond.
