Bio:
Jeremy recently graduated from the University of Michigan where he concentrated in Neuroscience and Spanish. Having been born and educated for Ann Arbor, Michigan, it is no surprise that he has an itch to see more of the world. His interest in international development spawned from his passion for health and empowering others. While studying abroad in Buenos Aires, Argentina, he developed a reproductive sexual education program that imbued him with the joy of collaborating with different cultures while exposing him interconnectedness of health and human rights. Upon his return from Argentina, he became more active in human rights advocacy work where he discovered, among other things, the incredibly powerful idea of microfinance. While he still plans on becoming a doctor, he hopes to approach this profession will a more holistic manner, exploring medicine's relationship to social and fiscal factors.
