I am a first year in the Health Promotion MPH. I am interested in community organization and transgender health. I have a Bachelors of Science in Anthropology from Southern Utah University, since then I spent a few years working as a Project Manager in the Life Sciences field.
My office hours are on Zoom from 11:00am-12:00pm PST on Fridays. You can also email me at SPHambassador@pdx.edu to schedule a time that works for you!

I’m currently a first-year MPH student in Epidemiology and have special interests in studying infectious diseases and social determinants of health.
My office hours are Tuesdays on Zoom from 3:30-4:30pm PST. If these office hours do not work for you, let me know at SPHambassador@pdx.edu and we can find another time to meet!
