Hi, Bruins! My name is Alana Cho and I am thrilled to serve as the Research and Assessment Peer Coach for the 2024-2025 academic year. As a sophomore majoring in Human Biology and Society, as well as Public Health, I'm passionate about enhancing community health and wellness on a broad scale, with a particular emphasis on financial wellness and literacy.

In addition to my academic endeavors, I'm gaining valuable experience as an intern with two biotech startup companies, where I'm immersed in the complexities of corporate finances and business development. I firmly believe that financial education is the cornerstone of well-being and effective money management. Financial independence is not only empowering but also lays a solid foundation for future success.

A fun fact about me, is that I enjoy scuba diving and exploring the underwater world! I look forward to working with you Bruins!
