Michael Jones
Mike is a graduate student in the Master's of Public Health program. He graduated
in the Spring with a Bachelor’s in Sociology and a concentration in Health, Education,
and Welfare. He is committed to help promote healthy behaviors and practices. His
dedication to help others stems from both internal and external experiences while
serving as a Marine in the military, as well as his personal endeavors with family,
friends, and communities.
As a first-generation college student, Mike does not underestimate the power of education
and loves to learn about anyone or anything! He enjoys that consistent pursuit to
grow more wise in the the process and the self-reflection that results. Mike is currently
studying to also be certified as an accredited American Council on Exercise (ACE)
Personal Trainer and dreams to one day work in law for health research and policy.
In his free time, you can find him either working out at the gyms nearby, hanging
out with his brothers of Sigma Chi, reading comics such as Sandman or Dark Knights:
Metal, or trying new, delicious foods around San Diego
Hi, I'm Alejandra and I am a first-year graduate student at the University of San

to work in higher education to work with students that are a part of underserved and
underrepresented populations and work towards equity in education and ultimately,
social justice.
I enjoy working out and being active, bullet journaling, DIY projects, making music playlists Currently, I have over 20 plants! Potting, repotting, trimming, and taking care of my plants is how I practice self care.

My name is Maryann and I am a junior studying biochemistry. I am interested in learning more about mental health and my career goals include becoming a medical doctor or a health researcher. In my free time I like to listen to music, do exercises and watch movies/series.
Cindy Ramirez
Hi! My name is Cindy Ramirez, I am a first-generation college student, majoring in Biology, currently in my senior year of college. I identify as Latina, woman in STEM and my pronouns are she/her/hers. My future goals are to go to medical school and become a Sports Medicine Physician. Outside of school my hobbies include sunset watching, spending time with family and friends and playing/watching soccer.
The reason why I joined the Health Cougars team is because I am dedicated on sharing the importance of physical health and nutrition to the CSUSM community. Before college, I considered myself an athlete therefore, I focused a lot on my physical health and what I ate. However, due to many injuries and my commitment to education I forgot about the importance of good nutrition and physical health. That’s why I am extremely happy and excited to be a Healthy Cougar because I am committed on helping you and others live a much happy and healthier life.

that mental health is surrounded by.
