She has also designed a Student Wellness Curriculum pilot and is partnering with other NTN schools in piloting the UW-Madison Center for Health Minds/Healthy Minds Innovations app and wellness program for medical students. She also assists with many student-led initiatives such as the MCW Common Read and the MCW MedMoth.
