Location

Off Campus

I have been in public health for over 10 years and have a BS in Biology, an MPH and a DrPH with emphasis in Epidemiology.  I view the field of public health as one of service.  Since receiving my MPH, I have worked at both state and local public health agencies holding such positions as Environmental Health Epidemiologist, Communicable Disease Epidemiologist, Public Health Program Manager, Bioterrorism Coordinator for the City, Research Specialist, Public Health Program Evaluation Coordinator and Adjunct Professor for Community and Public Health courses. As an Epidemiologist, I have also had the opportunity to investigate many foodborne illness and communicable disease outbreaks, which included working with the CDC on a large scale communicable disease outbreak. 
I am happy to share my experiences and expertise with future public health practitioners whose aim is to contribute to the overall health and well-being of the community they serve
