Jenesca William is the Grassroots Advocacy Intern for the United Nations Foundation’s Shot@Life campaign, where she supports our grassroots team and our network of advocates. Before joining Shot@Life, Jenesca graduated from Saint Louis University where she completed her MPH concentrating in Global Health & Biosecurity and Disaster Preparedness. During the program, she explored initiatives to increase uptake in childhood immunization in Pakistan, where her interest in public health first sparked when she was young.

Beyond her interests in global health, sustainability, and advocacy, Jenesca enjoys trying new cuisines, being outdoors hiking, and recently rediscovering a love for reading.
