My professional journey began in Seattle's vibrant arts scene as a writer and editor for the TeenTix Newsroom. I progressed to the role of Newsroom Program Coordinator, where I collaborated with the Teen Editorial Staff to publish their thoughtful and insightful reviews. My passion for art—both in creating and sharing it with my community—has been a profound source of joy and inspiration.A core value of TeenTix is making art accessible to all teenagers, regardless of their background. This commitment to intersectionality and inclusivity has shaped my understanding of equity, which I now apply to my current pursuits in public health and medicine. I am dedicated to improving health outcomes for all, driven by the same principles of accessibility and community care.
