Uma Guarnaccia is a rising senior at NYU studying Applied Psychology with a minor in Media, Culture, and Communication. She became interested in the field of Global Mental Health while studying in Ghana for four months, and became passionate about learning how to combat the stigma surrounding mental health in low resource communities and how those communities can gain more access to mental health resources. In addition, her research interests lie in migrant and refugee mental health. She is very excited to be joining the Global Mental Health Program team as an intern this summer!
