Philadelphia, PA

Passionate About:

If there is one thing Nicaragua 2015 taught me it is this: "everyone smiles and laughs in the same language". I am passionate about medicine and helping others but more than anything else I am passionate about happiness, both experiencing it and sharing it. Cannot express how excited I am for Honduras 2016! Thank you for your support.

Currently studying to become a Physician Assistant at Philadelphia University!

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.
