Bio

Hello! My name is Charlotte McCormick, but I go by my nickname Charlie. I attend the University of Arkansas with a Public Health Major and a Human Development and Family Sciences Minor. I am originally from San Antonio, Texas. I am the daughter of a United States Air Force veteran, and my mother is a blind disability activist and poet. I am dedicated to creating a more equitable future through food insecurity access, mental health advocacy, and leaving this planet better than I found it through sustainability and environmental outreach. I am also passionate about providing access to genetic and mental health counseling that has helped my mother through her journey with Retinitis Pigmentosa and would love to dedicate my life to providing education and encouraging autonomy to others about their health choices.
