Jess Valdez is only at the beginning of her journey in medicine, yet she has found motivation and grounding in her purpose by always remembering and honoring the people, communities, and experiences that have made her who she is today. In addition to being a medical student at UCSF and the daughter of Mexican immigrants, Jess embraces her identities as the compassionate sunshine friend and vulnerability queen.

At the end of this episode (39:14), Jess shares a beautiful poem she wrote in response to the separation of families crisis among asylum-seeking families that continues to this day.
