My first east coast winter! ❄️
Incredibly grateful to PQAR & @NYUGPHBiostats for allowing me the opportunity to take a statistical programming class for the J-Term! Thankful for letting me be challenged and grow in this way + for everyone who made it possible to invite me back!!

Deep gratitude to those who made the PQAR program possible through their time, mentorship, efforts, and resources. There is such a need for these voices in public health and I am thankful to get to grow alongside this cohort in our journeys moving forward!

Last month, I visited my old high school in Compton and spoke to students about my journey in public health, navigating college, and how the road is not always linear— especially as a first-gen student.

Looking forward to seeing the even greater things they accomplish.

Appreciate @UCLAINTL (and especially Peggy McInerny's) kindness in hearing and telling part of my story!

No matter what is to come, I hope to remember that it's not always about the end goal, but the growing and shifting that happens in between.

Graduating senior Stephanie Perez, a first-gen college student, is headed toward a career in public health and dentistry after she graduates. https://t.co/d5RWqqi2bq
