I am a Junior at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville studying Psychology with a minor in Public Health on the Premed track. I want to pursue medicine because I am very passionate about women's health. Black women, especially, face so many disparities in healthcare, and I want to be a part of the change that needs to happen. I am also passionate about serving people in underdeveloped places because I believe that everyone is entitled to medical aid/ healthcare. This is why I want to be a part of the UTK Panama Medical Brigade. I feel like we take for granted the almost unlimited resources we have in the U.S, which is why I want to help those in Panama who may not have access to the same supplies and aid.
