President

Anika MellaCheruvu

Anika is a fourth-year public health major. Something she loves about Footprints is all the things we do to support not only the kiddos on the unit, but also the greater pediatric community! She's met the most amazing people through this organization, and is so grateful for the experiences Footprints has given her. One day in the future, she hopes to work in healthcare, hopefully in the field of pediatrics. A fun fact about Anika is that she can play the trombone.

Co-Vice President

Abigail Chudzinski

Abigail is a fourth-year microbiology and cell science major. She loves Footprints because of the relationships she gets to form with our families through service both on and off the pediatric unit! Abigail is so grateful for not only for the experience she has had through this organization, but also for the amazing friendships she has gained. After her time at UF, she plans on attending medical school. A fun fact about Abigail is that she loves running, paddleboarding, and doing anything outdoors.
