Camille De Jesus
(She/Her/Hers)
Exhibition Committee Member
Camille is an MS3 at Stritch SSOM, originally from fabulous Las Vegas and now transplanted in Chicago. After some friendly nudging from my old college classmate Robi Bucayu, she joined CYFAM's Conference Planning Committee in hope of finding Filipinx camaraderie, amplifying Filipinx voices, and building the newest generation of Filipinx leadership in Medicine. In her spare time, Camille likes to go down Wikipedia rabbit holes, water any of her plants that might still be alive, nap on the couch with her two dogs, and philosophize the virtues of deep dish versus thin crust pizza.
