I am a disabled writer, researcher, and evaluator. I have a PhD in medical anthropology and postdoctoral training in public health. My work has included an emphasis on public health workforce development, environmental health, disability and chronic illness, mental health, migration, and infectious diseases.
I am interested in determining how policy and other structural issues impact health, and I am passionate about using research and data to advance health equity and justice. I am highly skilled in public communication of science and public health, which I have demonstrated via several peer-reviewed academic articles, op-eds, blog posts, and content development
