    I’m Ly and my pronouns are they/them/any. I am currently a first-year psychology major, but I am intending on switching into neuroscience with a minor in psychology. I wanted to join PHP since public health and well-being has always been an interest and passion of mine. I am grateful to be able to support the wellness of students on campus through PHP.

  • Rahul Almeida

    I decided to join PHP because I was interested in helping out to maintain the wellbeing of our campus community. I have always been interested in public health and believed that being a part of PHP would help me understand more about its various aspects. I really believe in the value of treating communities and preventing disease and being a part of PHP aligns well with this.
