Volunteer
Hi! My name is Amya (Uh-my-uh), and I am a proud volunteer with the Ethnic Health Forum! I am an international student from the United States and I'm currently a Master of Public Health (MPH) candidate at the University of Manchester. I received my bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. I aspire to pursue a career as a pediatric physician working in acute and critical care. Alongside clinical practice, I am committed to advancing healthcare initiatives that address health inequalities, promote intercultural approaches to care, and inform equitable public policy. These topics of interests have been the focus of my research, which explores how culturally responsive and community-centered models can improve patient trust, access, and health outcomes! I am very excited to work with the Ethnic Health Forum, as I am motivated by the opportunity to engage with the community of Manchester, learn from lived experiences, and contribute to meaningful change!
