What I'm looking for

I am seeking a public health role focused on policy or program evaluation where I can apply data analysis, community outreach, and cross-disciplinary collaboration to improve access to care.

I am a Master of Public Health graduate with hands-on experience in public health policy research, program evaluation, and community engagement. I have supported legislative tracking, developed policy briefs, and facilitated data-driven discussions to inform public health decision-making.

My clinical and field experience includes behavioral intervention implementation, HIPAA-compliant data management, and improving outreach program engagement by 20%. I combine strong analytical skills with grant-writing and literature review experience to support interdisciplinary teams.

I am dedicated to improving access to care and addressing social determinants of health through evidence-based policy, patient advocacy, and collaborative program development.
