Sanjna Hegde

I am a senior at Aragon High School. Outside of school, I am a research intern at the CSU East Bay BRAIN Lab to support patients with traumatic brain injury. In addition, I enjoy giving back to my community through volunteering at my local hospital. In my spare time, I enjoy playing club soccer and painting. 

As a youth that spends hours each day scrolling through social media, I understand the impact social media and advertisements can have on youth. I joined this coalition to support the youth community and advocate for safer online platforms. Through this campaign, I hope that I can educate youth about the impacts of social media and how to create a safe online presence. I hope to support the youth community by spreading awareness about the relationship between social media and substance abuse.
