I received my MPH in Epidemiology from Emory University in 2022. I am currently working as a Research Coordinator with CHIP on the MALLARDS, Mpox, and Mozambique projects. Previously, I received my BA in International Studies, focusing on Human Rights, Conflict Resolution and Public Health in 2013. My research interests include infectious diseases, environmental health and health equity. I have recently fallen in love with implementation science as a means of continuously innovating systems and finding more effective interventions to promote equitable health programming.
