Proudest Moment: Getting the opportunity to gain UW Honors mentors who directly informed my post-grad plans of pursuing a Fulbright scholarship to study health and medicine from an anthropological perspective!

Thesis: Polysomnographic Findings on the Relationship between Sleep and Pain in a Pediatric Chronic Pain Population: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Hi! I'm Sacha, and I'm a recent graduate of the UW Honors Program. I'm passionate about the study of the brain, the creation of music, and the discovery of personalized ways to contribute to social justice. In the Fall of 2020, I will be pursuing a Master's degree in Medical Anthropology at SOAS University of London, with the long-term career goal of becoming a health care practitioner that utilizes research and community engagement to encourage equity within our national and international health care systems. The UW Honors Program has been a pivotal aspect of my time as an undergrad, and I'm excited to continue learning how to use an interdisciplinary approach to understand and address the various injustices plaguing society.
