Audrey Lam is a third-year medical student at the Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine. She was born in the San Gabriel Valley, California, and raised by first-generation Chinese-Vietnamese refugees. She graduated from the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology with a B.S. in Human Development and Aging and is passionate about advancing health equity for geriatric and LGBTQIA+ communities.

Audrey was a recipient of the NIA-funded Medical Student Training in Aging Research (MSTAR) grant, where she designed a research project developing a novel educational webinar series to address the needs of dementia caregivers from marginalized populations, including those with LGBTQIA+ identities. She is also currently investigating LGBTQIA+ health disparities within AANHPI communities with Dr. Elaine Hsiang.

As the APAMSA LGBTQIA+ Director, she looks forward to advocating for individuals with intersecting identities and advancing inclusive representation and improving health outcomes for these communities.
