LILY SAEPHAN - CO-PRESIDENT
Hey y'all! My name is Lily and I'm your Co-President! I'm a Mien, first-generation college student intending to major in Social Welfare. Growing up in South Sacramento, CA I became interested in the health field through the experiences of my family and community. Many did not have health insurance and lacked the resources or aid to access healthcare. Coming into Cal, I took the Pre-Health DeCal during my Freshman year and discovered nursing. Many reasons attracted me to nursing, but one in particular stuck out to me most - the patient interactions. I hope to become a Nurse Practitioner and return to my hometown to serve low-income communities and under-represented minorities. Outside of school, I enjoy reading and watching Netflix! |
LAUREN CHOY - CO-PRESIDENT
I'm Lauren, 3rd year Nutritional Science with an emphasis in Toxicology. I came to Cal as pre-health, certain that I wanted to help others yet unsure in what aspect. After volunteering at the UCSF Medical Center, I decided that I wanted to pursue nursing. I love the nurses' atmosphere and hope to become a Nurse Anesthetist! I enjoy everything and anything outdoors. My favorite hobbies include snowboarding, backpacking, and hiking. I'm excited for another great year in PNS. |
ANNIE YU - SECRETARY
Hey everyone! My name is Annie Yu and I am currently a first year intended MCB and Chinese double major. I have always been certain to pursue a career that allows me to work in a hospital setting and as I explored my options, nursing was personally the best fit! I am sincerely passionate about giving back to my community and hopefully in the future, I will be given the opportunity to do nothing but assist those in need. When I am not bombarded with homework or studying for upcoming midterms, I usually like to sleep or go on spontaneous adventures around Cal with my friends!

KELLY LI - PUBLIC RELATIONS CHAIR
Hi everyone! I’m Kelly and I am the Public Relations chair for the Pre-Nursing Society this year. I am a third-year Public Health major. After personal experiences in hospitals and healthcare settings in recent years, I discovered my love for the nursing career. Nurses get the opportunity to really connect with their patients and make a big impact on a hospital experience, which I think is really special. I currently work as a Certified Nurse Assistant at a nursing home in Berkeley, and hopefully, after Cal and nursing school, I will be working as a Registered Nurse at a hospital somewhere! Aside from my love for nursing, I also enjoy cooking and baking, trying new types of food and restaurants, watching bad but good movies, and hanging out with babies and little kids. If you have any food recommendations or need a babysitter, let me know!

Oliver Fajardo - PUBLICITY CHAIR
Hey everyone! I am Oliver, and I am the Public Relations chair.
I am Nicaraguan American, first-generation college student.
I am currently in my senior year at Cal and will be attending Duke University’s ABSN program for Spring 2019!
My journey into nursing became clear after I took a gap year working in tech and engineering. I realized after my gap year that I wanted a career that had more of a human component and where I could make a direct impact on someone’s life!
I’ve been a CNA and volunteer at Highland Hospital's Emergency Room.
On a less serious note, I enjoy hiking, hanging out with friends and family and love Hot Cheetos and hot wings :)
