Case Manager

Radhika is a first-year medical student at New York Medical College. She was born in Canada and grew up in Maryland. She completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Maryland, College Park, where her passion for advocacy and serving historically underserved communities grew. As a case manager for NYMC CHR, she is grateful for the opportunity to play a role in helping individuals rebuild their lives and establish a safer future, a right everyone should possess. She is eager to work with a team of peers and clinicians to better understand a physician’s role in supporting asylum-seeking individuals and serving as an advocate. Radhika enjoys crocheting, listening to music, and rooting for Toronto’s sports teams in her free time.
