Hey New York HOSA Members! My name is Kristina Kirakosyan, your 2026-2027 Region E Vice President! I’m currently a senior attending Sacred Heart Academy in Buffalo, New York. Going into my 4th year of HOSA, I am incredibly honored to have the opportunity of serving you as a state officer. In addition to HOSA, I am passionate about all things related to medicine. I am involved in cancer research at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, participated in healthcare exploration programs and volunteered at various hospitals, and shadowing the OR. Besides medicine, I am a class officer for my grade, I enjoy playing the piano, and have led my school’s volleyball team as a captain since my Junior year. Some of my favorite activities include going for walks, spending time with my friends and family, watching new movies, and travelling. As for my future aspirations, I hope to become a Plastic Surgeon. I cannot wait to meet our members, grow as a community, and have a blast together this year!
