CATE SCHROEDER
Outreach Director
Cate Schroeder is a third-year Human Biology and Society major from San Diego, CA. She is passionate about pursuing work in medicine, global health, and human rights, so she can help combat the barriers and prejudices people face within and beyond the healthcare system. She aims to provide patients with tools and resources to advocate for themselves, while encouraging physicians to call out unjust policies and fight for every patient’s health. In her free time, Cate loves laughing with friends (probably too loud, sorry neighbors), sketching random celebrities (send suggestions!), and binging Grey’s Anatomy for the nth time.

Currently on a pre-med path, Alicia aspires to become a physician that is aware and acknowledges the inequalities in the access to healthcare and implements that in her practice.
