Hi, I'm Ingrid, an incoming medical student and freelance designer. Passionate about tackling healthcare disparities, healthcare delivery, and social determinants of health. A strong believer in community-partnership, cultural humility, racial and ethnic minority representation in research/medicine, social justice, and dispelling the “model minority” myth. I aspire to pursue healthcare and research, uplifting the voices of marginalized groups, and have a penchant for design.

 

Growing up tinkering on my photographer father's photoshop, stumbling on brush sets online, and self-taught, design became my creative outlet throughout school and beyond, and I have been lucky to be commissioned for this work. I appreciate the intersections between art and science, and value using art as a medium of expression and connecting our humanity together. As a strong believer in community engagement and outreach, especially for those most difficult to reach, I hope to incorporate this passion into health education and communication.
