Hi there! :) My name is Adrianna, and I go by Ani. I grew up in Santa Barbara, California. I recently completed my Masters of Public Health Program from UC Berkeley in 2015. I am a public health professional, doula, and writer. I am personally and academically passionate about women's health issues and community-based work.

My cousin Sarah, who is originally from Ventura, California, is now living in Munich Germany and completing her Masters of Epidemiology from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. Sarah cares deeply about international public health, history, and medicine.
