Hi! I'm Jonathan Diaz. I am currently working as Junior Global Surgery Research Fellow with Operation Smile, assisting physicians with their research in the organization. I graduated from University of Southern California (USC) in May 2023, with an M.S. in Global Medicine, along with a B.S. in Human Biology and minor in Global Health. During my time at USC, I was heavily involved in education and global health. With regard to education, I worked as a part-time tutor for the Joint Education Project (JEP) and dedicated my time as a session leader and experiment manager for Science Outreach (SCout). With regard to global health, I led the USC chapter of Flying Samaritans and participated on the Fact Check and Design Committees of GlobeGramSC.Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, trying new restaurants, and traveling! In the future, I aspire to be a physician, with interests in the specialties of family medicine, pediatrics, or dermatology, working to address health equity in underserved communities.
