Just Two Guys Who Want to Help Make the World a Healthier Place with You

Hi my name is Matt Scott and I will be one of your ASB co-leaders! I am a senior planning to attend medical school in the Fall! I first became passionate about service through my involvement with my HOSA chapter in high school. This passion has translated into a variety of activities throughout my college years- finally leading me to ASB! I am very interested social structures, specifically those that impact Public Health. I think focusing on food security and justice is an excellent way to learn more about how our resources can affect our overall wellbeing.

            Greetings all! My name is Sam England, and I am your other ASB co-leader. I am also a senior, and I will be attending law school this Fall. My interest in service was cultivated while I was working towards earning my Eagle Scout award in high school. Since then, my passions have centered on public health and specifically on disparities in health outcomes strongly correlated to socioeconomic inequality. I hope to address these issues at a policy level during and after law school. In the meantime, I am looking forward to addressing one aspect of public health – food justice and security – alongside all of you!

            As the day approaches where we will be able to meet as a group for the first time and unveil certain aspects of our trip, we hope you are all as excited about serving as the two of us are. We look forward to exploring new concepts with you and learning from all of you as well as we build authentic relationships that will last long after March 18th. Our hope is that this trip not only enhances the lives of the people in the community we serve, but that it also becomes a memorable experience that will inspire all of us to take what we learned on the trip and apply it in innovative ways in other communities. We eagerly await engaging in life-changing acts with each and every one of you!
