Sarayu Jaladanski

Director of Outreach

Sarayu joined the TACO community to steer away from previously punitive approaches to substance use in favor of safe, informed decisions about substance use. As Director of Outreach, Sarayu leads her team in expanding TACO’s community relationships. 

Sarayu will graduate in 2024 with her BS Human Biology, minors in Artificial Intelligence Applications and Health Care Studies from the University of Southern California. Beyond her work with TACO, she’s involved in research guided by Dr. Ricky Bluthenthal, studying the impact of marijuana legalization on opioid overdose rates in addition to researching patient safety under Dr. Allison Luu at LA General Hospital.
