Sarah Daniel
I'm a medical student based in Calgary. My work has given me a close-up view of how gaps in awareness can delay people from getting the care they need, which is what drew me to community-level health initiatives like this one. I'm interested in projects that create practical, lasting impact that continue to serve their communities well beyond their initial timeline. Outside of my academic and research work, I care about building things that are accessible, sustainable, and rooted in real community needs.
