HEART & HUMANITY.

01 PURCHASE ART WHERE 100% OF PROCEEDS SUPPORT CANCER RESEARCH.

Throughout 2020-22, AM Studio focused on philanthropy - not just 1% or 5%, but truly giving back. To kick off this giving effort, we donated 100% of art proceeds to the American Cancer Society from commercial-scale murals, to large paintings, to clothing, to custom band covers, and corporate logos. When you order an art piece via this campaign, your donation is shared directly to the ACS ResearcHERS campaign. This campaign is dedicated to promoting equality in STEM by supporting the innovative and groundbreaking oncology research of scientists from traditionally under-represented backgrounds.

 

By partnering with the American Cancer Society (ACS), the nation's largest private, not-for-profit investor in cancer research, AM Studio art pieces support programs which drive increased access to patient care and fuel groundbreaking cancer research grants. This art campaign also celebrates over 15.5 million cancer survivors nationwide. 15.5 MILLION. That’s huge! And although new research has fueled cancer breakthrough therapies, our work is far from done. Cancer comes in all shapes, sizes, types, and continues to be a life-threatening burden. Will you join us? 

Founder, CEO at AM Studio LLC - a global community of artists, luminaries, and friends who share a passion for art, culture, and giving back to underserved populations and patients.

02 THE AM STUDIO 
MISSION & VISION.

Board Member, American Cancer Society LA Central Coast

ACN CAN Legislative Ambassador

I began my volunteerism locally with the American Cancer Society (ACS) in Orange County and in the Los Angeles-Central Coast Area. I then expanded my efforts to a national level, raising funds for cutting-edge research, lobbying for oncology initiatives in U.S. Congress, and engaging millennials in the fight against cancer across the US. My most recent involvement with ACS includes initiatives for BrightEdge Ventures, and legislative efforts with ACS CAN in order to support US policy for development of oncology-focused breakthrough therapies. An example of the policy we have supported in the past is the Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act (PCHETA), where we secured $4B NIH funding, ~7.7% increase from FY2019.

03 ACS / BRIGHTEDGE VENTURES.

Medical Assistant, Sundari Mohan Hospital - Silchar, India​

I've been to India six times, and have worked four consecutive summers in a small village in northeast India assisting in surgeries such as gallbladder removal, kidney removal, hysterectomies, pelvic floor repairs, and thyroids, and cyst removal. During my time as a medical assistant, I utilized tissue forceps, artery forceps, large and small retractors, ball syringes, attach teeth clamps, and inserted surgical cloth and helped stitch patients’ surgical incisions. I also generated and led several hospital development activities, and served at the Northeast India Academy for the Blind Cataract Eye Camps, and Cachar Hospital Cancer Sector. I'm very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work in, volunteer in, and travel to 30+ countries (India, Austria, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, The United Arab Emirates, Cuba, Germany, Canada, Mexico, France, The United Kingdom, Belgium, Japan, Turkey, Thailand, Malaysia, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Israel, Morocco etc).
