Health & Education
Heyo! My name is Kia Sartip and it is an honor for me to serve as HEAL’s Director of Health and Education for 2020-2021. I am a Track 2 Senior originally from the East Bay Area in Northern California. I now want to stay in San Diego after graduating (because what’s not to love about this place?). Aside from lots of studying and schoolwork, I love to hike, go to the beach, and watch Netflix with my roomies when I have free time. I have never been abroad before, so I am ecstatic that my first time will be for a great cause. Health and Education is a relatively new position, and I am thrilled to see the impact it has on the upcoming brigade. Education is key to preventive care, and I am looking forward to implementing educational opportunities regarding a variety of health topics to improve the quality of life for the people in Sangkhlaburi, Thailand.
