Boulder, ColoradoBuilt Environment and Healthy Eating, Active Living (HEAL) Coordinator
Boulder County Public Health
While not a traditional public health practitioner, I know my future is in public health because public health is where we will find solutions. Public health has the opportunity to convene, champion equity, and build power.
Three words to describe me:
determined, tenacious, hopeful
The best part of my job:
implementing a solution that I co-designed with the community that intersects the social determinants of health
Something that would surprise others about me:
I lived in a bunkhouse with 21 other people for 10 months, where I taught elementary school children environmental science for half of the year and built hiking trails for the second half for Student Conservation Association.
