Passionate About:

I have always had a deep passion for helping people. I am currently a junior kinesiology student hoping to pursue a degree as a Physician Assistant. I hope to one day travel to third world countries such as those in Africa, where I will be able to apply my knowledge learned here at the University, and work in a clinic of some sort.

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.
