Talia Coryat - Grassroots Health

Talia Coryat

Howard, Lacrosse

Talia Coryat a.k.a. “Taco” (she/her/hers) is currently a senior at Howard University! She was formerly on the Howard Women’s Lacrosse team, where she learned about Grassroots through her older teammates as a freshman. Talia is originally from Long Island, New York, but calls Orlando, Florida her home now. She has been involved with Grassroots Health since 2020, where she began facilitating programs virtually due to the pandemic.

Prior to joining Grassroots Health, Talia was already working with children as a summer camp counselor, babysitter, and lacrosse coach for elementary and middle school students. She has always been passionate about educational and health equity, which is what sparked her interest in Grassroots Health. Talia also aspires to be a therapist, so she especially loves facilitating the mental health programs.

Talia will be graduating in May 2023 with a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology with a minor in music. She is also a volunteer on the NAMI National Helpline, along with serving as Vice President of Howard University’s Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC).

Taco really does love tacos. But, her nickname was created by her little brother who realized that the word T-A-C-O is made up of the first two letters of both her first and last name! Not only does Talia love lacrosse, but she also enjoys anything involving the arts, nature, and traveling. You can find her exploring any city that she’s in, from museum trips to concerts to exploring new restaurants. She’s always on the move, which must be why she played attack on the field!
