Inspiration to join AMSA

What inspired me to join ÃÛÑ¿appin the first place was the community. When I was 18 and had just moved to the United States, I wanted to feel like I belonged in medicine, and ÃÛÑ¿appgave me that right away. The advocacy is what kept me here. Seeing how ÃÛÑ¿apphelps students deal with real healthcare problems and make a difference gave my work with the organization a deeper meaning and made me want to keep growing within it.

Motivation to become a National Leader

As I got more involved in AMSA, I realized that I didn’t just want to be a part of it; I wanted to help make it better for everyone else. The community that first drew me in had a big effect on me, and it felt natural to want to give back. AMSA’s work for students also showed me how much power students can have when they have the right platform. Becoming a national leader seemed like the best way to combine those two goals: helping others while working for bigger changes in healthcare, especially in the current climate.
