Hello, my name is Ashley Tsang and I am interested in art, taekwondo, and social justice. I am studying Kinesiology Sports medicine at Rice University. I love working with kids and have been a counselor and site leader for Camp Kesem and PAIR. Currently, I am combining my passion for art with the roles of publicity chair for PAIR and AMP director for Camp Kesem.
Last year, I added the sction "Healthcare Barriers" to the Wikipedia article "Refugee Health in the United States". I chose that topic after working as a healthcare coordinator for the International Rescue Committee in Atlanta. As I helped the refugees with their medicare transport and doctor’s appointments, I realized the many negative and positive aspects about U.S. healthcare in general and for refugees specifically.
This year, I hope to contribute another article to Wikipedia!
