MEET YOUR STATE OFFICERS
Wyatt McDonald, President
Rolla Technical Center
What’s up, Missouri HOSA! I’m Wyatt McDonald, and I’m so excited to serve as your State President for the 2025–2026 year! I’m currently a senior at Rolla High School with a deep passion for public health and a goal of reducing healthcare disparities through political science.
This year, our officer team is working hard to bring new and exciting opportunities your way—from impactful service projects to fresh council initiatives and creative social media content like our Sunrise to Sunset videos. We’re here to make this year engaging, empowering, and unforgettable for every member.
Outside of HOSA, you can catch me playing pickleball with my family or capturing special moments through my photography business. I’d love to connect anytime, so feel free to reach out at mohosapresident25@gmail.com. Let’s make this a standout year for Missouri HOSA!
Valeria Gonzalez, President-Elect
Frontier STEM High School
What's up Missouri HOSA! My name is Valeria Gonzalez and I'll be proudly serving as your 2025-2026 President-Elect.
I'm a rising junior at Frontier STEM High School, aspiring to a career in pediatric endocrinology and healthcare advocacy. If I'm not at school you can always find me volunteering, working on a new piece of art, or catching up on the latest reads!
I can't wait for this amazing year! If you have any questions you can reach out to: mohosapresidentelect25@gmail.com.
Vihaan Choudhary, Vice President of Communications
Lindbergh High School
Missouri HOSA, are you ready to share your voice, lead with purpose, and become “Champions of Change?” I’m Vihaan Choudhary, a senior at Lindbergh High School in St. Louis, and I’m thrilled to serve as your Vice President of Communications this year! To me, HOSA is where future health leaders unite, lead, and ignite real change in healthcare and beyond. Together, we’ll turn this year into something truly remarkable!
Outside of HOSA, I love playing the trumpet and piano, filming videos for my YouTube channel (The Sports Medicine Channel), and watching football and tennis! I’m also passionate about brain injury prevention, and, in the future, I hope to pursue biomedical engineering and neuroscience!
If you ever have questions, ideas, or just want to chat, please don’t hesitate to reach out! My email is mohosavpcomm25@gmail.com. Let’s expand our horizons together!!
Claire Kilgore, Vice President of Public Relations
Rolla Technical Center
Hello Missouri HOSA! I’m Claire Kilgore, your 2025-2026 Vice President of Public Relations. I’m about to begin my senior year at Rolla High School, and then I plan to go to college for Pre-Med Biochemistry in pursuit of becoming a neurologist or pharmacologist.
Even though my heart belongs to healthcare, I have many other passions. Besides learning about any and all sciences, I love to work on art projects, cook, spend time with loved ones, immerse myself in music, or do anything that involves hands-on learning. Whether it be working the closing shift at Applebee's, scavenging for my next thrift find, or meandering around a park, I believe that taking an active approach to life is the best for our health. I encourage you all to seek knowledge and treat life like a story: just because one page doesn’t feel meaningful, it doesn’t mean that your story isn’t.
Our delegation may just cover Missouri, but our talents and passions have the ability to expand the horizons of healthcare as well as the world. If you have any questions, ideas, or would like to reach out, you can find my email here: mohosavppr25@gmail.com. Let’s make this year the best one yet!
Sanjay Adireddi, Vice President of Membership
Ladue Horton Watkins High School
Hey Missouri HOSA! I'm Sanjay Adireddi and I'm so excited to be serving as your Vice President of Membership this year! I have been a HOSA member since 2022, and this year I will be a senior at Ladue Horton Watkins High School in St. Louis. In the future, I’m interested in studying neuroscience and medicine, and hope to explore how the brain’s circadian rhythms can guide approaches to preventing and treating disease.
Beyond HOSA, I play tennis for my school, ultimate frisbee with my friends, and enjoy filming nature with my drone. If you ever run into me, ask me if I have my Rubik's Cube, which I love solving and teaching to others! As your Vice President of Membership, I am dedicated to strengthening local chapter connections and enhancing networking opportunities at conferences.
