Passionate About:

Giving everyone access to healthcare! My name is Julia Mamana and I am the Clinical Chair for VAW at UA! I am a junior biology student and I do biomedical research on viral meningitis. I currently am a Medical Assistant, but I want to become a trauma surgeon someday. I traveled to Panama last summer with VAW and it was the best experience of my life. I am incredibly excited for the opportunity to get to learn about Peru's medical system and help people in need.
