Serena believes that community is vital to healing. Regardless of where folks are at in their healing journey, they deserve support, care, and authentic connection. Serena is excited to facilitate an intersectional space at Project HEAL so that she can continue building relationships with other people of color who are healing from their eating disorders.

Outside of Project HEAL, Serena works with high school students at an Asian nonprofit. She holds a BS in Chemistry and Secondary Education from Vanderbilt University, where she facilitated events to promote mental health awareness through Active Minds. Her experiences in education have reinforced her passion for dismantling diet culture and working towards liberation for folks in marginalized bodies.

Serena’s favorite ice cream flavor is Brambleberry Crisp from Jeni’s.
