Happy Spring! Let’s meet another COSA member, Princila!

Pronouns: She/her/hers
Year: Senior
Major: Nursing
Fun Fact: Loves to paint and sketch🎨 Some of her art is featured in this post!

Princila Asante is a Bronx Native and senior pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Stony Brook University. Being raised by her Ghanaian immigrant parents, inspired a strong work ethic and a passion for women’s health and interest in international affairs. With an education in Nursing and background in health, she wants to use her voice to actively fill the gaps in systems that fail to effectively address issues pertaining to women’s health and wellness.

In her future career as a midwife, she also aims to foster her awareness and advocacy for women’s health in countries like Ghana. She fervently believes that every woman deserves the resources and education needed to make informed decisions about her healthcare. This year she joins the incredible cohort of the President’s Council of Student Advisor to be a voice in assessing student matters. She is the Treasurer of Stony Brook’s Chapter of Scholars in Our Society and Africa, a nonprofit organization working to promote education and literacy in the lives of Ghana's youth.

As an active member of the university’s African Student Union, Stony Brook Student Nurses’ Association (SBSNA), and LIDA Volunteer Doula Program, she has also gained immense insight into branches of nursing that can be expanded internationally, as well as, provide a great trajectory for her career. This summer she had the opportunity to build on her knowledge working at SUNY The Haiti Project where she played an active role in developing COVID response plans for Akaye, Haiti. She strives to use these insights and skills to advocate for women’s right to adequate healthcare and health education in areas it is most needed. As a proud COSA member, she is cultivating this passion and sees great potential in what this opportunity has for her future.
