Paulina Luna is originally from Mexico and her family moved to the Chicago area when she was young. Growing up with a mixture of Mexican and American culture allowed Paulina to develop a love for languages and new cultures. This fascination led her to major in French at the University of Notre Dame, where she also studied Pre-Health. After graduation, Paulina combined her passion for medicine and cultures by pursuing a Master of Science in Global Health back at the University of Notre Dame. Paulina has experience working in France, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Peru. She is currently a student at Yale School of Medicine and hopes to continue working in global health, focusing in reducing health inequalities among vulnerable communities in Latin America and immigrant populations in the U.S.
