Meet The Ambassadors

  • I am currently attending UCLA and I’m majoring in Molecular Biology. Science Nerd Alert!! My favorite activity is boogie-boarding, I love connecting with the ocean and its amazing wave power. I’m excited to be a Soluna Ambassador because I believe in the power of healing and being part of the support system they reach out to in order to begin their healing.

  • I'm a Psychology major at UC Santa Cruz! In my free time, I really enjoy reading and spending time with the people I love. I'm currently reading a book called House of Leaves and would highly recommend it (so far). This position and Kooth as a company really drew my attention because I have some family members that struggle with mental health. I admire the desire to provide free anonymous mental health support!

  • I live in Chico and attend college there at Chico State. I major in Psychology. I enjoy reading, writing and playing video games to pass the time. I’m very excited to be a Soluna ambassador because I think that the app’s goal of helping young adults improve their mental health aligns with what I want to do in the future, which is become a psychiatrist. I know that I would have loved to have a resource like this when I was younger and struggling a bit, so the idea of pushing it out there and letting people know about it makes me happy. I’m so glad that there is a free mental health app like this, it seems like it is very helpful.

  • I live in the Los Alamitos/Seal Beach area and am currently attending Cypress College as a psych major. My all time favorite activity would definitely be cliff jumping. My friends and I went on this amazing hike for my birthday at Santa Paula Punch Bowls and there were a bunch of beautiful cliff jumping spots and an all natural water slide too. There were also some nice cliff jumping spots at Lake Powell when I went a couple years ago. I’m super excited to be a Soluna Ambassador because with this role comes the ability to connect to like minded individuals as well as help normalize conversations around mental health and help inspire others to seek help and support when they need it.

  • Some of my favorite activities is walking while listening to music, cooking (especially pastas), and reading romance books. The reason why I'm excited to be a Soluna Ambassador is because I've always been interested in learning more about mental health. I've always tried my best to advocate for mental health topics since I do believe these issues should be taken seriously. With this opportunity, I want to not only acquire more professional skills but also, extend my support to more people.
