Summary
As a final-year social sciences undergraduate with a background in legal environments and a passion for public health, I bring a unique perspective to academic research. My internship at a law firm honed my analytical and research skills while my peer support role at a crisis center developed my understanding of community needs and resilience. As a student with disabilities, I am committed to advocating for inclusive practices and equitable access within public health initiatives.
