What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and impactful community health initiatives.

I am a dedicated public health researcher with a strong foundation in epidemiology, health disparities, and environmental health. My academic journey at California State University, Fullerton, has equipped me with a Bachelor of Science in Public Health, where I concentrated on Global Health and minored in Psychology. I have honed my skills in both quantitative and qualitative research, policy analysis, and community advocacy, enabling me to effectively support large-scale studies and engage diverse communities.

Currently, I serve as a Research Assistant at CSUF's Department of Public Health, where I conduct literature reviews, collect and analyze data, and assist in study design. My experience extends to the Southern California Earthquake Center, where I engaged in community outreach and developed reports on earthquake preparedness. I am passionate about translating complex data into actionable insights that can improve community health outcomes.
