Passionate About:

There are many things that I would consider myself passionate about, but what specifically comes to mind is the constant improvement of the mental and physical lives of children. I am a psychology pre-health major and I am determined to help fulfill this passion daily. Global Brigades has given me opportunities I could have only dreamed of before and I am so happy to be making such drastic changes in the lives of so many people with each brigade I take. I can't wait to serve as a chapter president this year and lead many others to Panama to continue treating community members and most importantly giving them and their younger generations the knowledge necessary to continue living cleaner, healthier, and happier lives.

I have made a small difference in Honduras but Honduras has completely changed me.

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.
