STAFF PROFILES

Elizabeth Kwo - Founder and President
Currently a senior at Stanford University, Elizabeth Kwo is majoring in Human Biology and minoring in Economics, with a concentration in international health. She plans to attend medical school in two years, but is currently working for several non-profits in international development. Elizabeth immigrated to America twice from Taiwan, enabling a dual perspective that celebrates the riches of diversity and uncovers the commonality that transcends all cultures. As a sophomore, she traveled to Nepal and founded NCI, which she has operated for the last two years. She has also volunteered in several countries, researching Peruvian natural resource management, working in an orphanage and community center in Mexico, and establishing temporary health clinics in Ecuador. She intends to infuse her future medical career with a view of the world as a mosaic of cultures, joining what is universal through the crossroads of different languages, expressions, and cultures.

Jennifer Miller - Advising Director, Co-Founder and Director of the BeAGoodDoctor Organization
A senior at Stanford University, Jennifer Miller is majoring in Human Biology with a focus in International Health. She has spent the last four years growing SCOPE and the BeAGoodDoctor Organization in an effort to provide premedical and medical students with the ability to make an informed decision on their career choice and to create a more cooperative and noble premedical community.
Along the way, Jennifer has confirmed her own desire to become a physician through a myriad of experiences with patients, physicians, and other health workers in the bay area, Nepal, and Honduras. Jennifer is interested in travel as a means of expanding cultural awareness and language ability, and plans to build a life in which she is constantly serving, growing, researching questions, teaching, and creating needed medical and educational programs. In her free time, she enjoys hiking (especially in Yosemite and to local hot springs), dancing (salsa & swing are her favorites), and a hammock/good book combo. She loves talking with other students about their goals and aspirations, and welcomes you to email her with any and all questions

BinBin Jiang - Executive Director
BinBin is a senior majoring in Environmental Engineering and minoring in Human Biology. Having been involved with NCI for the entire time she has attended Stanford, she strongly believes that programs like NCI are essential to providing students a broad prespective of international healthcare. Having a background in environmental issues related to water quality and management, she is hoping to integrate the aspects of public health and water infrastructure in her future work.

Eric Wong
Eric Wong completed his bachelor's degree in Economics with minors in Spanish and Computer Science at Stanford University. He is now a buy-side analyst at Barclays Global Investors, an institutional active and index manager headquartered in San Francisco. As a part of the Advanced Active Group, Eric supports portfolio managers in equity research and analysis, melding his technical and economic education to facilitate information flow between the different business units. While at Stanford, Eric was one of 12 students selected to participate in "Upside Potential and Downside Protection," a quarter-long course taught by Nobel Laureate William Sharpe on quantitative investment analysis and modern portfolio theory. In his sophomore year, he also co-founded udorm.com, an e-commerce startup that sold dorm-related goods to college students across the nation. Eric is currently a consultant for the Nepal Clinical Internship (NCI), a Stanford-based non-profit organization that sends students to undertake clinical internships in Nepal. As a founding alumnus of the Stanford Alumni Mentorship Program, Eric is also working closely with the Stanford Alumni Association and the Career Development Center to connect students with alumni in a long-term, one-on-one relationship for career advice and insights. Native to Hong Kong, Eric loves to study Chinese in his spare time and aspires to establish a cross-cultural exchange with different people and cultures through his language skills. Eric is also an impassioned advocate of higher education and hopes to raise high school literacy through an established organization in the near future.
