Warrior Ambassador

“I admire the school’s connection to the community via community engagement and service learning. There is an interplay of recognizing how much our student body can aid the area, but also how much they can learn from the area as well. Detroit is a great city with a diverse population, and I felt as though I can learn from the community within the city, which is why I appreciated how intertwined the school is within the community. My goal in health, as someone from a marginalized background, is to advocate for all my patients, especially ones from a marginalized background who feel like there is a barrier between themselves and their health. I believe the education I have obtained/could obtain from Wayne State and the greater metropolitan Detroit area will get me there. ”
