University of Washington, School of Public Health

PhD Candidate

I am an Epidemiology PhD candidate at the University of Washington interested in the intersection of public health and data science, with a particular interest in environmental health research.

My current research focuses on the ways in which climate change influences our health through novel methods. Prior to coming to the University of Washington, I worked at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation where I was a statistical modeler for the Global Burden of Disease project modeling congenital birth defects globally.

I completed a Masters in Public Health at Tufts University School of Medicine and the Allan Rosenfield Global Health Fellowship at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
