My name is Brianna Sammon and I have the honor of being the D’24 Class Vice President. I grew up in Syracuse, New York. I received my bachelors in 2019 from St. John Fisher College where I majored in Biology. I then completed a Masters in Biomedical Sciences at Tufts University School of Medicine. When not in school I love to play/watch sports, bake, or explore the city of Boston. My priority is to be there for my classmates as a friend, resource, and advocate. I feel beyond fortunate to be a part of such an incredible, talented and strong class; who has persisted through so much change.
Hi everyone, my name is Vidhi Desai and I’m the D24 Class Secretary. I’m from Louisiana, but I was born in India. I did my undergraduate degree in Biology, with a concentration in Marine Biology at Louisiana State University, and my Master’s in Medical Sciences at Mississippi College. I enjoy relaxing and spending time with the people I love the most. I also enjoy being active and exploring around me. I’m honored to represent our amazing D24 Class as its Secretary. I am passionate to serve and help our class to my fullest capabilities.
My name is Debora Yoon and I am the D24 Class Treasurer. I was born and raised in Alaska and received my bachelors degree in Natural Sciences from the University of Alaska Anchorage. I then received my Master’s degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Tulane University in New Orleans. I am so excited to serve as class treasurer and I look forward to meeting everyone soon. Outside of class, I absolutely love spending time outdoors biking, hiking, and especially snowboarding! ”

Favorite thing(s) about Tufts and/or Boston? My favorite thing about Tufts is that we have access to sooooooo many resources. Every time I turn around, I’m learning about another beneficial resource.
My favorite thing about Boston most definitely has to be the architecture. My first time in Boston was in 2014 for a graduation and the one thing that constantly stood out was the interesting architecture.
Fun Fact(s) about yourself and/or hobbies? I love my pup, Opal. She really is the dog version of me. I love, love, love, love running and the outdoors. I also put 3 places as my hometown because I was born in New Orleans then moved to CA, but I literally visited/lived in all three places. I have had the beautiful opportunity to be influenced in all ways by all 3 cities as well.
