Undergraduate Departmental Representatives
I am a senior pursuing a B.A. in Health: Science, Society, and Policy with a minor in Sociology. Originally from the Bay Area, California, I am a transfer student from a community college. I am really passionate about maternal and infant health and health equity and hope to contribute to meaningful research in that field. I am also super passionate about making higher education accessible to all!
I love being involved with on-campus activities and am involved with Southeast Asia Club (SEAC), the Muslim Student Association (MSA), and Upward Bound. I am here to help if you have any questions regarding transferring, HSSP, student orgs, and research!
Hey there! My name is Maddie, and I am a senior from Los Angeles, California. I am pursuing a BA in HSSP and Psychology, and plan to obtain a Master's in Social Work (MSW) after I graduate. When I first started college, I was set on a clinical path, but I quickly discovered my passion for the interdisciplinary nature of HSSP. I love being able to examine public policy on a broad scale while staying grounded in community-based health efforts. In addition to being an HSSP UDR, I am the Lead UDR for the Division of Social Sciences, a Roosevelt Fellow, and an office assistant at Academic Services. I am also a Research Assistant at the Heller School for Social Policy and Management, where I contribute to various local health policy projects. My main hobbies include music, movies, and thrill-seeking— I play the drums and have ridden over 300 different roller coasters around the world! Please don't hesitate to reach out, whether you've declared your major/minor or not. I am more than happy to chat about classes, jobs, research, or life in general.
