Our Central Staff
GlobeMed's central staff manages the day-to-day execution of GlobeMed's program model and are made of full-time staff, recent graduates, and current university students.
Victor Roy, Executive Director (victor@globemed.org)
Victor's involvement in GlobeMed started in 2004 and he's enjoyed every minute of it. Besides interests in political science (his major) and public health, he loves playing the tabla (an Indian percussion instrument), rooting for his favorite sports teams, and traveling around the world. The 49ers, Knicks, and Yankees, though, have given Victor little reason to celebrate during this decade.
Ashley Hagaman, Chapter Advisor (ashley@globemed.org)
Ashley is a recent Neuroscience graduate from the University of Michigan. Despite her major, her passion lies within global health and medicine. She runs marathons and loves weekend backpacking adventures. She also has a sick addiction to coffee and refuses to walk through middle doors - it's bad luck.
Ankur Asthana, Campaigns Team (ankur@globemed.org)
Ankur is a junior at Northwestern majoring in biomedical engineering and minoring in global health. He is from the small town of Menomonie in Wisconsin and enjoys a competitive game of Super Smash Brothers anytime.
Ron Li, Campaigns Team (ron@globemed.org)
Bio coming soon!
Jennifer Lien, Campaigns Team (jennifer@globemed.org)
Jennifer Lien hails from the great land of Cincinnati, Ohio and recently got over her addiction to playing Euchre online. She is a sophomore at Northwestern University, majoring in Learning and Organizational Change and minoring in Global Health. Jenn enjoys clam chowder without the clams, the smell of tennis balls, and is sometimes found wandering the school supply aisle for hours.
Greg Freedman, Finances Team (greg@globemed.org)
Greg is a sophomore at NU majoring in mathematical methods in the social sciences and economics. He was probably halfway to a life as an investment banker and the ensuing midlife crisis at age 30 when he participated in American Jewish World Service's Volunteer Summer Program to Ghana. Now he hopes to have a career in developmental economics, or something else useful to the world.
Peter Luckow, globalhealthU and Summit Team (peter@globemed.org)
After taking a year off of school to work full-time for GlobeMed, Peter recently returned to Northwestern University to complete his studies in anthropology and global health. In his free time, Peter focuses his energies primarily on The Colbert Report, the Chicago Cubs, and Chipotle burritos.
Divya Mallampati, globalhealthU and Summit Team (divya@globemed.org)
Divya is a senior at Northwestern University. A native of Dallas, Texas, she is majoring in anthropology and minoring in global health. Divya loves running, martial arts, and traveling. She has an incurable obsession for apples and a weakness for sappy movies.
Rachel Berkowitz, Partners & Projects Team (rachel@globemed.org)
Rachel is entering her final year at Northwestern, studying cultural anthropology and global health. Having recently returned from a summer of medical anthropology research in Ghana, she has a new appreciation for the tastiness of grasscutter and the beauty of bright batik fabrics. Hailing originally from Florida, she genuinely enjoys long walks on the beach, and she will ultimately work in the global health field...somehow. Details pending.
