Zuha Mehdi

Hello! I'm Zuha, and I have a healthcare background as I graduated with a Bachelor's in dental surgery. My passion for community well-being blossomed during my early days, volunteering at the free oral health camps. Witnessing firsthand the impact oral health has on overall well-being ignited a spark. I realized true success goes beyond individual treatment; it lies in empowering communities through education, awareness, and access to resources that contribute to their holistic health. This realization made me yearn to expand my impact beyond the dental chair, leading me to the fulfilling path of public health. Here at Assuaged, I'm excited to gain hands-on experience working on projects that improve healthy living, impact lives, and make a real difference by advocating for healthy eating and healthy habits. I also believe my dental and healthcare background can add a unique perspective to my projects at assuaged. When I'm not being a public health advocate, I nurture a passion for artistic expression, I especially enjoy the mesmerizing art of calligraphy and paintings.
