What are your biggest takeaways from serving with LMSA this year?
On a personal level, one of my main takeaways was the reminder of the positive impact of working with others who relate to us culturally. Some highlights of LMSA meetings included our co-director elect playing Latin music, laughing over shared experiences as Latinos, and speaking Spanish with other students.
What advice do you have for those pursuing LMSA leadership in the future, or just leadership opportunities in general?
Go for it and continue to challenge yourself. As medical students, we have busy schedules. My first year of med school I was hesitant to take on leadership positions due to the uncertainty of my bandwidth balancing schools and extracurriculars. While being mindful of your responsibilities, pick organizations and positions that you're passionate about. I found these ECs reminded me of my "why."
Who are your biggest heroes - parents, figures, partners, etc...?
