Undergraduate: University of Southern California (2020)
About me: I majored in international relations as an undergraduate, and at the intersection of international relations and health grew my passion for global health. I found myself fascinated by the elucidatory power of politics, history, culture, and economics in understanding and solving health inequities around the globe. This passion was further cultivated through international volunteer experiences as well as through research projects I conducted on malnutrition in India, food insecurity and climate change in the Arctic, and opioid addiction in the United States, India, and Greece. As a physician, I intend to utilize my global health knowledge and medical expertise to mitigate health inequities through medical practice, capacity building, and policy advocacy.
