I love the work that I do, particularly the partnerships that I have had the honor of creating and fostering in the field of refugee and immigrant health.
Three words to describe me:

The best part of my job:
working with community partners to find innovative ways to turn community expertise into practical resources for public health professionals
Something that would surprise others about me:
I love traveling, and I have been very fortunate to visit over 50 countries.
