Hello everyone! My name is Ming Lin and I am currently a medical student at the Medical College of Wisconsin. I graduated with a B.A. in Anthropology from Tufts University in 2014 and a M.S. in Medical Science from Boston University School of Medicine in 2019. Previously, I’ve worked over 5 years as a trilingual patient navigator at Tufts Medical Center Cancer Center for cancer patients from underserved Boston communities, and as an adult ESL teacher for immigrants in Boston Chinatown. I also served as a member of the Commission on Cancer at Tufts Medical Center Cancer Center. I am a co-founder of The HAAPIE Initiative and a past Regional Director (VI) of the National Asian Pacific American Medical Students Association. I received the 2022-2023 HONORS Award from the American Society of Hematology to further a clinical and research career in cancer health disparities. I hope to pursue an Internal Medicine/Psychiatry residency and ultimately go into Hematology/Oncology, with a career focus on cancer disparities, psycho-oncology with culturally-aligned psychosocial support, quality of care, and health-related quality of life, particularly serving immigrant, AANHPI, and LGBTQ+ communities. When I indulge myself, I love to imagine what life would be like if I were a chaebol and could afford a closet full of fancy coats, cook, rewatch Sasha Velour’s infamous lipsync (IYKYK) as a nightly ritual, compose music, and root on my bb’s Chelsea/Real Madrid FC.
