I am currently pursuing my Master of Public Health at IIPH Delhi. In the next one year, I see myself in the last semester of my course where I would be working on my dissertation. And in the one year, I seek to learn more in the field of public health, gain on-hand experience through internships, and also make connections with others in the field. I also seek to learn a lot from all the core subjects in public health which will give me a different perspective and help me understand the world a little better. I also see myself volunteering for the underserved population and making adequate health and healthcare accessible to them through various NGOs. I also see myself sharing good ideas with my colleagues and friends on how each and every one of us can bring about a small change, which would on the collective level bring about a bigger positive impact on the population that needs it the most.
In the next three years, I expect myself to be a person who works for the people’s betterment. I see myself working hard for them. I expect to get a job that suits my interest in public health. I see myself working on the ground with people in the rural sector through a reputed organization, thereby helping in reporting and addressing the health-related needs of the people generating new ideas, and learning something new every day. I shall see myself thriving to bring about equitable healthcare access to all populations. I also see myself still volunteering for NGOs and donating for the greater good through selfless actions. Through the coming years, I seek to learn and understand the needs and the ways in which they can be addressed through on-hand experiences, internships, fieldwork, learning from all teaching faculties, making new connections, and understanding and contemplating over experiences from all my colleagues.

Foundation of healthcare technologies society has helped me groom as Public Health professional. The V-INSPIRE virtual internship program from Foundation of Healthcare Technologies Society, New Delhi is one of the best and most enriching online internship opportunities in India. During my one month of internship, I got to engage immensely in the healthcare technology field and understand various aspects of it. The experience was a positive one in which I developed many skills, expanded my knowledge. I am really grateful to my mentor, Dr Heemanshu Aurora who had helped me and guided me all the way. I learnt application of technology in Public Health and its benefits. The one month of internship made me more confident and more knowledgeable Public Health Professional.
