Two NETWORK Issue Areas You Especially Care About: I am especially concerned with various aspects of society’s well-being and the broader healthcare system, including elements which address equity, disparities in healthcare access, and health outcomes among different populations. On top of this, I am equally as passionate about climate change, environmental health, and sustainability practices. I am driven by passion to work as an advocate, recognizing the link between environmental factors and public health.

Why are you serving with Y.A.L.L.?: I am serving with Y.A.L.L. because I have an active desire to advocate for my community, as well as for myself. I see a great value in the pursuit of justice and the common good for all. It is my intention to use my voice in order to further educate and support those around me, and beyond, with the help of the NETWORK Y.A.L.L team.
