What I'm looking for

I seek a community-focused role leading PSE initiatives where I can design and evaluate programs, train partners, and drive measurable health improvements.

I am a results-oriented public health professional with deep experience in community-based projects, policy, education, and counseling. I bring practical experience developing neighborhood-level interventions that use policy, systems, and environmental approaches to create lasting change.

In my current role as a Program Coordinator at UI Health, I lead program design, implementation, reporting, and evaluation while collaborating with stakeholders, teachers, and community organizations to develop campaigns aligned with community needs.

Previously, I delivered direct nutrition education and counseling to low-income families and WIC participants, coordinated certification processes, and connected clients to broader community resources. I have a record of developing training, presentations, and innovative outreach using contemporary communication technology.

I hold certifications including Food Service Sanitation Manager and Certified Lactation Counselor, have been published in APHA, and received multiple awards for policy and community partnership work. I’m known for going above and beyond and for building strong rapport with community leaders and partners.
