Review for TeachAids, Stanford, CA, USA
As a 2020 Computer Science + Social Good Fellow for TeachAids, I worked extensively on the Concussion Story Wall Project. Through this project, I utilized my technical skills to help engineer the Story Wall website, which is a free resource containing 4000+ patient stories and expert medical advice. Like all TeachAids products, this resource is entirely free and built for the sole purpose of revolutionizing health education. I also helped as a member of the CoviDB team working to address misinformation related to COVID-19. In this role, I helped to collate reliable expert-vetted articles relating to COVID-19.
My experience with TeachAids was immensely positive and tangibly shaped my future aspirations to become a physician addressing neurological issues like concussions. Moreover, TeachAids as a company is run incredibly effectively, focuses on research-based approaches, and seamlessly integrates a diverse group of volunteers with the ultimate goal of improving health outcomes via novel technological approaches to education. At TeachAids, I was encouraged to think creatively, identify innovative approaches to difficult problems, and work in pursuit of a more equitable future. To me, TeachAids stands as the epitome of non-profit work done exceedingly well.
