Hey everyone! My name is Josie and I am a 4th year Human Biology major in Marshall College. This is my third year with AMSA and second year being on the officer board, so I’m really excited to see old and new faces back on campus this year. I am thinking about going into Family Medicine or Internal Medicine, but I don’t want to close myself off to other specialties just yet. It took me a while to decide whether or not I wanted to be pre-med, so I’m down to talk more about this topic as well as other things like the MCAT, classes, etc. During my free time, I love trying out new restaurants, spending all my money on pretty desserts, and watching anime.

Hannah Abraham
Major: Molecular/Cell Biology & Global Health
Email: hmabraha@ucsd.edu
she/her/hers
Hello hello! I'm Hannah Abraham, a double major in Molecular/Cell Biology and Global Health, and a third year at Revelle. I aspire to be a physician who impacts the lives of patients holistically, and not just on the surface level with medications and procedures. My ultimate goal is to be a physician in an underserved community and offer support to those who need it most. I am utterly obsessed with the colors of a partly cloudy sunset, painting, and binging Kdramas (medical ones are the best, fight me) and finding new cute spots to study at. Outside of AMSA, I'm a Pathmaker Intern at Palomar Health, I illustrate for Saltman Quarterly, and I'll be a Revelle RA this year. If you have any questions about the application process for Pathmaker Internship, being an RA, or if you ever wanna just hang out, feel free to email me! I love meeting new people and can't wait to meet each and everyone of you.

she/her/hers
Hello everyone, my name is Chelsea! I’m a third-year from Sixth College majoring in Molecular and Cell Biology and minoring in Studio Visual Arts. If I had to pick a life motto, it would be, “Work Hard, Play Hard,” and I try my best to keep it in practice. I love being involved with my school life through my classes, organizations, volunteering at a lab, and being an Orientation Leader. To balance this out, I enjoy making coffee/boba and ramen runs, belting my heart out at concerts, copping sick thrift finds, and taking pictures to capture all the fun moments with my loved ones. My goals in the future are to explore the different realms of pediatric care and to continue learning more about how to improve healthcare for those from marginalized communities. I’m happy to be y’alls CAA for this upcoming year and creating new memories alongside all of you. If you ever find yourself curious about anything just reach out to me and maybe we can chat over a cup of coffee! :D
