Biography
I utilize community engaged research to understand and address social determinants of health, health inequities, and food insecurity asm any of the individuals and families with whom I work are also facing severe housing insecurity or homelessness. I am learning Dissemination and Implementation Science, which studies the processes of moving research evidence into community and clinical action, to enhance my ability to understand the complex contexts that impact social determinants of health. I also overess the childhood prevention programs for the Driving Out Diabetes Initiative through the Center for Community Nutrition.
