I am excited to serve as the Certification Manager for AUPHA. As a young healthcare professional, I have dedicated my time to creating an impact in any space that I find myself in. My advocacy started with my role as the Director of Health and Wellness for Towson University. I was able to develop and manage programs that improved the health and wellbeing of the Towson University Community. Additionally, I lobbied for over 10 bills in the Maryland General Assembly supporting educational initiatives in Maryland. I am currently a state ambassador for the National Alliance of Mental Illnesses (NAMI) and was just recently featured in a kid’s literary magazine for my work with immigrant youth, education and mental health. In my free time, I like to watch Big Brother and compete in the Miss America Organization.
