Hi! I’m Desara, and I started this club because I believe that the path to healing is always better with friends. My goal is to make sure no one at Hunter feels invisible — every whisper deserves to be heard.

Outside of academics, I enjoy oil painting, playing tennis, going to the gym, and — most importantly — exploring philosophy.
