It all started with a passion to care for people, to truly touch lives from a clinical perspective.

I started working at an acute psychiatric unit.I noticed there were people who felt dejected for more reason than one.

They expressed how they are looked down upon and treated differently because of their mental health illness. They feel ostracized for something beyond their control and my heart ached for all of them. Each time I listened to their stories, I walked away wondering - What contributions can I make to the world to prevent people from feeling this way?"
