Passionate About:

I am a student at UCCS. I aspire to attend medical school after my undergrad in Nutrition. I am passionate about traveling and helping others in need. I went to Panama last year through Global Brigades and I learned so much about healthcare in different cultures and I grew as a person. I hope to learn more on this next trip to Nicaragua, and I am excited to be immersed in more cultures.

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
