Cynthia Platt (they/them)

Triton Food Pantry Co-Lead Manager

4th year Molecular & Cell Biology Major, Minor: Global Health

As a Triton Food Pantry co-lead manager, Cynthia has spent 3 years ensuring that student needs are prioritized above all. Having grown up facing recurrent systematic food and housing insecurity, Cynthia loves working alongside policy makers to advocate for groups that are frequently left unheard in complex systems like prestigious universities.

They feel strongly about working for organizations who try hard to accommodate the groups most disadvantaged by either policy or society. Because of this, Cynthia plans to continue working in spaces like the Basic Needs Hub as leadership to make sure those in power are always taking into account student accessibility.
