专业 Highlights:
Since my time began at Shenandoah University, I’ve had a number of memorable professional highlights.
I’ve had the opportunity to travel with students on Global Experiential 学习 courses three times to Belize and once to the Dominican Republic. I enjoy sharing travel with students and exposing them to 新 experiences and cultures while completing meaningful service projects.
I’ve also had the opportunity to share my research studies with students in a collaborative manner. Among many studies, we’ve completed two research projects focused on women’s and men’s preconception health and involved over a dozen students on each project. While COVID-19 interrupted recruitment on the most recent research study, we were able to recruit approximately 350 women from the local Winchester community. We hope to understand barriers to optimizing couples’ preconception health to improve maternal and child health outcomes.
个人报价:I jointed the SU community in 2010 with the task of building a 新 undergraduate program in 公共卫生. It’s been an exciting adventure, building roots in the Winchester community, meeting some talented and hardworking students, and sharing my love of 公共卫生 with the next generation of leaders.
Some memorable experiences from my first two years at SU:
-Taking my First Year Seminar class in Maternal & Child 健康 to the March of Dimes March for Babies Event in October 2011
-Planning a Global Experiential 学习 Course including a 2-week immersion in Central America for May 2013
-Working with several SU students to launch a pilot community nutrition study in the Shenandoah Valley
Personal Highlights:
My family and I live in Loudoun County with our menagerie of animals! We enjoy outdoor activities like hiking and swimming with our dogs and giving back to the community.
