Passionate About:

I personally enjoy the challenge of learning about biology, the human body, effects of medicine and almost anything associated with human and health. I watched my parents go from healthy individuals to battling each other in and out of hospitals in one year. In that time, I sacrificed a lot to nurse them, give them time and attention, and help them understand their illness. My personal experience really inspired me to pursue a career in the medical field because I want to be able to help others who are going through the same situation. I want to improve patients\' health, provide families trust and support, and help patients understand their conditions. Besides an interest in the medical field, I enjoy baking cupcakes, DIY projects, and dance!

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.
