Prior to joining AMSA, Devika helped lead the University Report Card at Universities Allied for Essential Medicines, served as a project manager for the Free the Vaccine for COVID-19 campaign, and organized various health policy campaigns as the president of the NSAC@PrescriptionJustice! She has a strong interest in using health economics research and grassroots advocacy to advance policy platforms aimed at improving the lives of patients, especially those facing systemic inequities. She currently lives in North Carolina, and enjoys reading novels, taking care of plants, and spending time with her friends!
