Dedicated public health professional with expertise in project management.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and results-driven professional with over five years of experience in project management and data analysis, particularly in the realm of mental health and human services advocacy. My journey has been defined by a commitment to improving community health outcomes through effective stakeholder engagement and program management. As a Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES), I have developed a strong foundation in crisis communication and social and behavioral education, which I leverage to create impactful programs.
Throughout my career, I have successfully established support groups and coordinated logistics for safe shelter transitions, ensuring the safety and well-being of families in crisis. My role as a Client Advocate and Data Analyst allowed me to provide crisis intervention services and maintain detailed records using Electronic Health Records (EHR). I thrive in collaborative environments, having built strong partnerships with community organizations to enhance resource access for those in need.
Currently, I am focused on developing individualized service plans and job readiness training programs that empower clients to achieve their personal and professional goals. My educational background, including a Master’s in Public Health from Mercer University, complements my hands-on experience, enabling me to contribute effectively to any team dedicated to improving public health.
