Infinite Possibilities...

The greatest gift that Mount Sinai has given me is the Global Health Center (GHC). There, I found a dedicated team of physicians with a real commitment to global health and an interest in mentoring students like me who hope to lead a career in the field one day. Dr. Natasha "Anu" Anandaraja has been my mentor, who helped me plan a trip to a rural hospital in India for 2 months during the summer after my first year. The GHC also provided funding, and helped me to secure a travel scholarship to finance the trip. On coming back, Anu helped me with my research, which—thanks in part to her mentorship—I will be presenting at a national conference this fall. I showed enthusiasm and commitment to a project, and the GHC helped me make it happen.
