Meet the Team!
The Undergraduate Executive Board 2024-2025
Co-Clinic Manager
Class of 2025
Why RIVER Clinic: I joined RPC because I love working with children. After doing nonprofit work with pediatric cancer patients abroad in India, I wanted to learn more about the struggles that pediatric patients generally face in the underserved areas around Davis. RIVER’s mission spoke to me because of its focus on providing critical primary care needs for children while recognizing the impact of ACEs on our patient population. I hope to use the skills that I develop in clinic one day as a pediatrician or pediatric oncologist!
Fun Fact: In my free time, I enjoy playing golf with friends and family to decompress and connect with nature.
