Hi everyone! My name is Charlotte Wong and I am a AmeriCorps VISTA. I grew up in the suburbs of Southern California with my parents and two younger siblings. I attended Cornell University where I majored in Biometry and Statistics. I hope to one day become a doctor where I can combine the beauty of statistics with the intricacies of medicine. In my free time, you can find me spending time with my dogs, snowboarding, going to baseball games (Go Dodgers!), and enjoying a nice glass of wine.

Current VISTA Team Members

Hi, I'm Khoa and I am an AmeriCorps VISTA. I graduated from UCI in 2021 with a major in Biological Sciences. As a medical scribe and researcher working in the Emergency Department, I became aware of the toll that the opioid epidemic had on our community. My motivation to make a difference lead me to join the team at SafeRxOC. In the future, I hope to continue my work in promoting public health as a physician. My interests include playing basketball, traveling, and hiking.
