"Hello hello! I'm beyond excited to serve as your president! I'll be overseeing the officer board and AMSA as a whole, and leading some new initiatives this year. Outside of AMSA, I'm a mentor for the Microbe Hackers FRI stream and am pretty involved in other research. I love traveling, hitting the gym, trying new restaurants or boba shops, making music or art, and being outdoors (despite my terrible allergies). If any of that interests you, I'm always down to hang out! AMSA is my home away from home, and I hope our community can be the same for you!!"

"Hey y’all! I’m Antaraa, your fundraising director—and plot twist, I’m actually pre-dental! So yes, you absolutely don’t have to be pre-med to thrive in AMSA. When I’m not pretending to study at the PCL, I’m hunting down aesthetic cafes or blasting R&B on repeat. I love spontaneous adventures, matcha everything, and trying random hobbies just for the plot. If you’ve got food recs or wanna join a trapeze class, I’m your girl!!"
