Savannah is a senior at Stanford double majoring in Psychology and Asian American Studies. In addition, Savannah is the reigning Miss Asian America ('17-'18) and recently crowned Miss Vietnam USA ('18-'19). Competing in pageants has been a way for her to break down stereotypes about women as well as empower those in her community. Her philanthropy efforts focus on raising awareness for suicide prevention efforts and increasing culturally competent mental health services for the API community. Savannah hopes to continue empowering others to break down the stigma around mental health so our API community does not just survive, but thrives.
Aside from pageantry and philanthropy, she also co-chairs Stanford's Asian American Students' Association and works full time at Stanford Medicine, managing the Suicide Prevention Research Lab. In the fall, she'll be pursuing a Ph.D. in clinical psychology, focusing on community based mental health interventions for the Asian American community. In her free time, Savannah enjoys crafting and consuming copious amounts of boba. Dylan Corliss |
