What are you most looking forward to working with HealthierHere and our partners?

I am looking forward to informing health equity strategies through creative uses of data and data analytics. I am passionate about using data to inform strategic decisions, especially in the context of public health. I enjoy co-creating solutions with community partners and using community voice to shine light on the most pressing challenges affecting communities.

What drives your passion for this work?

The lived experiences that my family and I have had in navigating health system as people of color drives my passion for this work. I have been fortunate enough to have tools and knowledge that have helped my family, friends, and community have access to essential resources and I am dedicated to continuing sharing my knowledge and expertise however I can.

What is something about you that others might not know?

I have been playing the violin since elementary school and had the opportunity to be part of the University of Washington's Philharmonic orchestra during my undergraduate and graduate studies. I enjoy learning new instruments and listening to classical music during my free time.
