Current MCH Program Graduate Research Assistant, GWMCHN President


School: Milken Institute School of Public Health

Title: Current MCH Program Student

With GW since: Fall 2022

Center Role: MCH Program Graduate Research Assistant

I Chose GW Because: Not only is GWSPH a phenomenal program, the advisors and admissions department went above and beyond during the application process. Having the opportunity to speak with current and former students of the program and the work they were doing  allowed me to see myself in this program and was ultimately the reason I chose GW. 

Bragging Rights: My undergraduate senior capstone was an exploration on the correlation between body image and c-shelfs as the result of c-sections, and was selected to be presented on an online forum for Ob-Gyn residency students. 

Hobbies/Personal Interests: My personal interests are reading specifically fantasy/science-fiction novels, weight training and watching movies. 

People Might Be Surprised to Know That: I was an extra in a Marvel movie!
