Biography

I am interested in global health and connecting children in low-resource settings to care. I am particularly interested in implementing evidence-based interventions in these settings and determining the most feasible ways to do so. My goal is to make provision of care and decision-making as easy as possible for clinical providers who do not have access to many resources, and also expanding access to community-based care through more informal providers (e.g. traditional healers in sub-Saharan Africa)

Personally, I enjoy learning about new cultures and traveling, hiking, biking, being outside, being a member of the Oakland community, spending time with friends and family.
