Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

As a New Yorker, Sarai has always valued the richness that comes from diverse perspectives and lived experiences. She is passionate about advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and has contributed to DEI-related initiatives across various academic institutions and medical centers. Now in her second year as a student ambassador, Sarai aims to build on her experience in program coordination, evaluation, and pipeline development, with a focus on promoting educational equity and increasing exposure to health-related careers for middle and high school students from underrepresented backgrounds. This year, she seeks to foster inclusivity, connect students with School of Public Health resources, and continue strengthening a culture of service and engagement between students and the Rhode Island community.
