About

My ability to multitask, adaptability, and strong communication skills will help add value to any team. In the Winter of 2020, I graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in Public Health-Global Health. I am passionate about helping those in my community to better understand harm reduction, health promotion, and behavioral change. I am currently working for the Washington State Department of Health as a Health Services Consultant as well as concurrently attending the University of Washington School of Public Health to gain a Master in Public Health degree with an expected graduation date of June 2024. Throughout my graduate school experience I have partnered with Seattle Housing and Resource Effort (SHARE) for my practicum to help the unhoused population in the Greater Seattle Area. I am also working with the Washington State Department of Health Genetics Department for my capstone regarding newborn screening of Critical Congenital Heart Disease throughout Washington.
