Alex Anokwuru

Alex Anokwuru recently graduated from high school and will be attending nursing school on Vancouver Island in the fall. She plans to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and run her own practice in Canada and in Chicago, Illinois. Furthermore, she is a Digital Content Curator at PCHC; her tasks consist of interviewing and learning from those who choose to contribute their stories to our projects. Additionally, she aids in media management, videography, and video editing. She chose to become a staff member at PCHC because contributing to the Museum of Migration is a phenomenal way to improve her emotional intelligence and empathy skills. Additionally, the ability to capture and preserve the progression of an individual’s skills and talents based on where they geographically reside is so important and often taken for granted. Additionally, she especially adores the wide variety of stories which are collected in PCHC-MoM because diversity is important in making sure everyone feels seen. Lastly, a fun fact about her is that she loves reading horror novels; These books often juxtapose many fictional elements with real human emotions and fears. Therefore, her experience at PCHC-MoM will not only help her deepen her understanding of a diverse range of human experiences but will also help her transfer those skills in her future endeavors.
