A WashU student who is jointly pursuing an Olin MBA and a master’s degree in public health recently was named one of 10 “Students Who Rocked Public Health 2024” by the Journal of Public Health Management & Practice.

Danielle Sarraf, MBA 2025, has focused her public health work on the Study of Adolescent Lives After Migration to America (SALaMA), a program that addresses mental health challenges within marginalized communities.

“I grew up admiring my father’s global impact as an ophthalmologist and believed direct patient care was the best way to contribute to health care,” Sarraf said.

I later realized my strengths were better suited to address systemic health issues on the population level through public health and business.
