Talk to me a little bit about how important that advocacy has been for you in your community in med school.

Antony AlvaradoGUEST
So for me, advocacy, I think is really my strongest aspect of who I am, um, and, like, my involvement just in medicine, but then in, like, com- actual community fields, like with med school as well.

Antony AlvaradoGUEST
Um, so I am the class president of the final collaborative program, so the Drew UCLA program.

Antony AlvaradoGUEST
I'm the class president for class of '27/'28, depending on my official graduation date, when that comes.

Antony AlvaradoGUEST
But I really just try to, like, make sure that my cohort of students has a voice amongst the greater UCLA student body is really my focus when that comes to.

Antony AlvaradoGUEST
So if there's any things that we need, we have our own, like, Drew UCLA team of support, um, on the admin side that we are really able to reach out to with any concerns.

That was your minor, and I know the reasons why it was my minor, and I wanna hear why it was so important for you to continue doing something like that in college, where you were build-- you were sculpting and you were being creative and building things.
