Jessica Toledo
My name is Jessica Toledo, and I am a second year medical student at Rush Medical College. I am a proud Mexican American and the daughter of immigrants, originally from Long Beach, California. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Public Policy from UC Riverside and my Master of Science from Keck Graduate Institute. As Co-President of LMSA and a medical student, I am passionate about mentoring the next generation of healthcare providers, particularly those from marginalized backgrounds, and advocating for health equity in medicine. Outside of medicine, I enjoy cooking new recipes each week, singing, and going to concerts and festivals!
