"I am a Senior at Princeton University, pursuing a major in Psychology and preparing for a career in medicine and journalism. I have worked as an intern for the New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF), the Peter C. Alderman Foundation (PCAF), the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting in Washington, DC., and The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
My work for the Peter C. Alderman Foundation included a three-week trip to Uganda and Kenya visiting mental health clinics, conducting interviews with patients, co-writing a blog, and assisting with data collection at the annual African Mental Health Conference in Nairobi, Kenya.
While studying at Princeton, I pursue my interests in global health and health journalism as the editor for the Neuroscience/Psychology section of Innovation Magazine: the Princeton Journal of Science and Technology.
I worked at the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting as the Global Health Projects intern. In learning how to be a better journalist, I was able to aid in Pulitzer's efforts to tell the stories of individuals, not only their circumstances."
