Background

About Riley Alvarez

I subsist on science, health, and storytelling. Scientific inquiry drives my curiosity, where questions and answers can co-exist circadianly in my brainspace. This is how I trip & fall, pick myself up & learn. Healthcare is where these learnings can expand (hypertrophize?) into real-life deliverables. It is a space to defy the modus operandi, serve the underserved, and amplify their volumes. And betwixt these worlds, I write. We all have a story, and at the nexus of mine are people (i.e. friends who are simultaneously creatives, activists, leaders, thinkers, and luminaries). As a reader at heart, it’d be a privilege to know yours. “I learned the difference between what I can’t do and what I refuse to do” — Leslie Feinberg, SBB.
