Health Science Major with an Asian American Studies Minor

Why did you want to join the internship program
I am passionate about empowering Asian American students to explore our history and

American students to feel that they have a supportive group of people with shared
backgrounds to turn to for mentorship and guidance. Being in an environment where
I can cultivate my leadership and interpersonal communication skills while also being
able to celebrate my cultural heritage is a valuable experience that I hope to gain
from this internship.
