I am passionate about the intersection of health, technology, and innovation to increase access to resources that can improve quality of life for people around the world. Living with type 1 diabetes, I understand the challenges a patient faces when navigating the healthcare system, and I am fortunate to have a team of providers who help guide me and provide me resources to thrive with my condition. However, millions of Americans across the country are unable to connect with already-existing resources because of external barriers, and during a global pandemic, this problem has only been exacerbated. As a community health navigator through Help Desk, I hope to provide Lincoln Community Health Center’s patients with resources that will offer them a chance to be at their best state of health and as a result, their best selves.
