Revisiting Intersectionality with Stefanie Kurgatt

MESSAGE ME HERE!Our guest this week is Stefanie Kurgatt. Stefanie was born in Eldoret, Kenya but moved to the states at a young age and most of her childhood was spent in Tallahassee, Fl. She attended Georgetown University, where she earned her B.S. in Healthcare Management/Policy and M.S. in Health Systems Administration. She holds a great interest in health disparities, community health, and social determinants of health and strives to increase access to care for the underserved. In her spare time, Stefanie loves to workout, go on runs and bike rides around DC, and cook. She loves being outside and going on different adventures/road trips. Most recently Stefanie embarked on her first backpacking trip and is excited for more outdoor adventures! In this episode, Stefanie talks with Carmen and me about her experiences going on her identity journey as a biracial immigrant and the confidence she has gained learning to accept and love herself for who she is and her desire for others recognize the whole person for who they are and all the goodness they bring to the table.If this is your first time with OTC, check out  EPISODE 1: START HERE for more background on the show.
