Commission Board
Chair
Aryana Suhartono
Hello everyone! My name is Aryana, and I am a senior at Hanszen studying Psychology, Anthropology, and Medical Humanities on the Pre-PA track. I joined the SA Wellbeing Commission during my freshmen year and was heavily involved in Mental Health Week and O-Week initiatives. I love the commission's opportunities to explore different initiatives to raise awareness and provide mental health and wellbeing access and support to students. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting, exploring the Houston dessert scene, and playing Just Dance. I'm super excited to meet you all as the Wellbeing Commission Chair, and feel free to reach out at any time!
