Anitha is a first-year master's student in Communication and Advocacy and a current Fulbright Scholar at James Madison University, specializing in health communications. Her research is focused on mental health advocacy, especially on health campaigns that advocate accessible and affordable mental health services for the most vulnerable. Anitha is Global Health Corps Alum and as a global health champion who has been recently exposed to working with global health institutions, she is driven to tackle health inequities by leveraging her skills and experience in communications, marketing, and social initiatives she has been a part of in both corporate and non-profit settings in Rwanda.
“I’m looking forward to learn from the Terror Management Lab and work with the team particularly on mental health related research.”
Outside of her studies and work, Anitha loves outdoor adventures, hiking, and listening to music.
Paige graduated from JMU in May 2024 with a B.S. in Psychology and a minor in Criminal Justice. She is a first year graduate student in Communication & Advocacy and has always wanted to pursue a master's degree and is excited to be continuing her career at JMU.
Paige is interested in the intersection of psychology and communication in two different areas: sports and the criminal justice system. She is looking forward to applying the advocacy component of her degree to one of those field in order to make improvements throughout her career.
