I am driven by a passion for advancing healthcare at the intersection of patient care, policy, and scientific discovery. As a 2024 Truman Scholar and finalist for the Rhodes Scholarship, I’ve been recognized at the campus, regional, and national levels for my commitment to public service, health equity, and disability inclusion. With aspirations of becoming a physician, I hope to merge research, advocacy, and policymaking to reimagine a more inclusive and just healthcare system. My goal is to transform both local and global systems by championing innovations that close gaps in care, empower marginalized communities, and ensure accessibility is central to every healthcare solution. Through every stage of my academic and advocacy journey, I strive to build a world where equitable healthcare is not only possible—but expected.
