Passionate About:

"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile."
- Albert Einstein

I have had a passion for medicine since I was very young because of what the field would allow me to do for others. By traveling to Honduras I hope to be able to make a difference in the lives of many people through medical care and sincere relationships.

I am a recent graduate at The University of Toledo with a B.S. in biology. I will be attending Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine in August to continue to follow my passion and dream of becoming a physician. All help is appreciated! Thank you!

About Us

University of Toledo is a chapter of Global Medical Brigades, an international movement of students and medical professionals working alongside local communities and staff to implement sustainable health systems. We work in remote, rural, and under resourced communities in Honduras, Panama, Nicaragua and Ghana who would otherwise have limited to no access to health care. Each community receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are provided access to healthcare and volunteers deliver public health workshops. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends. nnIn conjunction with our Medical Program, Global Brigades also supports communities with economic development, sanitation and clean water projects, and uniquely implements these programs in a holistic model to meet a community’s health and economic goals. Our model systematically builds community ownership and collaboratively executes programs with the end goal of sustainably evolving to a relationship of impact monitoring.
