I aspire to use my experience, knowledge, and passion for public health to lead statewide efforts in hunger prevention, aiming to improve the health and quality of life of Oklahomans at risk of food insecurity and reduce related health conditions.
I stayed with the Maasai Tribe in Northern Tanzania for a few days in 2013.
