Miribel Tran is a Campus Editor-at-Large studying at Stanford University and is a Gates Millennium Scholar. She is passionate about harnessing the power of mental health and media to create tools and resources that empower people to become the best version of themselves.
Miribel's journey in mental health started when she struck a conversation with a homeless man whose mental illness had been misdiagnosed. She helped develop a more quantitative method of diagnosis for schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression, and her work has been sponsored, published, and presented by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, National Academy for the Advancement of Science, American Junior Academy of Science, and the Southern California Academy of Sciences. She has presented her research and advocated for mental health awareness at numerous research conferences and has also won the Grand Prize at Intel International Science & Engineering Fair in the Behavioral & Social Sciences category back in 2014.
Other passion projects she is involved in right now are building her own personal blog and helping build out the Girlboss community. In her free time, Miribel is currently learning how to play chess and speak Mandarin, as well as bake and hike. You can talk to her about all things psychology, strategy, self-growth, philosophy, investing, and entrepreneurship!
