What I'm looking for

I seek research or program roles that combine data analysis and community engagement in public health, with opportunities for mentorship and measurable impact.

I am a psychology undergraduate specializing in data-driven public health research, with hands-on experience in literature synthesis, data visualization, and program evaluation. I maintain a 3.87 GPA and have completed coursework in data science, research methods, and healthcare economics.

I have contributed to applied projects across clinical and community settings: producing visualizations of traveling nurse data in RStudio, assessing a national underage drinking campaign, and supporting a systematic review on metastatic cancer communication tools. I have also designed toolkits and curriculum frameworks and co-authored a symposium proposal on housing policy.

I bring cross-cultural experience from study abroad and internship work in Argentina and South Africa, Spanish proficiency, and peer-advocacy practice; I seek roles where I can combine research, analysis, and community-focused program development to drive measurable public health impact.
