I am a junior at Tufts University, studying Biopsychology, Community Health, and American Politics. I am an enthusiast of biological and neurological science, yet simultaneously passionate about the fields of law and health policy. Beyond that, I am a writer that seeks to use her words as a catalyst for change. Someday, I intend to discover the crossroads between these interests to better the lives of those in my community.

Ensuring equitable access to healthcare. Providing others with the platform to communicate their ideas. Acceptance of others. Constant loving, constant learning.

My TED journey commenced in 2020, amid the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and during my first year of college at Tufts University. During a time that was incredibly isolating, I found a community bonded over deep connection and nuanced thinking. TED brought me a family. My first year I began as a speaker coach, which transformed into Curator for year number two. Now, I am fortunate to possess the role of Curator for three years, passing the torch off following my senior year.
