I graduated from UCLA in 2020 with a B.S. in Human Biology and Society and a Minor in Public Health. I grew interested in public health after taking a Medical Anthropology class in community college, which introduced me to the effects of globalization and culture on medical care. My family history has guided my interest in immigrant health and I was drawn to Dr. Jih’s work, which emphasizes integrative health and inclusivity for patients. I will start medical school in August 2022.
