Our executive board
Pujita chodisetty (she/her)
co-President
Hi! I'm Pujita. I am a rising senior and a Public Policy and a Music Major. I love being a part of MHA because we work to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and it's really great to help support fellow students at UNC. I plan to attend law school after I graduate, and some of my favorite hobbies include running, (attempting) to cook, spending time with my dog, and traveling. I really like to spend time with my friends in my free time, and coloring having a good sleep schedule are super important for my mental health!
MOrgan johnson (she/her)
co-president
Hi, I’m Morgan! I am rising senior and a Chemistry and Psychology (BS) double major! I love MHA because I am passionate about bridging the gap between mental health resources/advocacy and the UNC community! I want to go to Medical School and love research in cognitive and bio psychology! I enjoy athletics in my free time and am on both the club volleyball and club jumprope team! Physical activity and cooking are my mental health saviors!
Esther son
vice president
Hello! I am a Junior studying Neuroscience and Spanish for the medical professions. I plan on attending medical school after graduating. I joined MHA my freshman year because I wanted to contribute to a community that strives to spread awareness about and decrease stigma surrounding mental health issues. In my free time, I enjoy trying new recipes/restaurants, nature walks with friends, working out, and watching Netflix. :)
Savannah mccabe (she/her)
secretary
I am a senior pursuing a psychology and English B.A. with a minor in Health and Society. I plan on pursuing a career as a clinical psychologist and I am especially interested in working with couples or those struggling with disorders such as OCD, anxiety, or eating disorders. In my free time I play pick up basketball with my friends, do some creative writing, and watch/read any romantic comedy I can get my hands on! I joined MHA because I think bringing awareness of mental health resources to peers is crucial in such a formative period of our lives, and understand that the younger people learn about mental health and how they can improve it, the better off they will be throughout their lives!
Gabby Goodman (she/her)
treasurer
I’m a junior studying economics, public policy, and business administration. I joined MHA to help fight the mental illness stigma, make mental health resources more accessible, and promote conversations about mental health. In my free time I enjoy hiking, listening to true crime podcasts, and spending time with friends and family. My mental health tip is to carve out time each day to do something that brings you joy.
ANgel brinson (she/her)
Social media chair
I am a senior (c/o ‘22) double majoring in Biology and Sociology. I enjoy being a member of MHA because mental health is something that a lot of young adults struggle with during college and being able to make a positive impact in this area has been an extremely rewarding experience. My future plans are to apply to UNC’s MS Occupational Therapy program and become a pediatric occupational therapist. In my free time, I enjoy reading science fiction novels and hanging out with friends. I am also currently learning to play the piano.
