About
I bring more than two decades of experience driving impactful health communication, advancing health equity, and shaping national public health initiatives. My career includes executive leadership roles within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, where I led multi-million-dollar programs, managed cross-sector partnerships, and developed policies and campaigns that improved public understanding of health issues.
My expertise lies in translating complex research and policy into clear, actionable strategies, whether through designing public health campaigns, mentoring the next generation of professionals, or guiding national advisory committees and interagency initiatives. I have successfully built and led high-performing teams, guided strategic planning efforts, and overseen federal procurements and budgets with precision and accountability.
At the heart of my work is a commitment to equity, evidence-based practice, and impact. I thrive in environments that require thoughtful collaboration, systems thinking, and the ability to lead through change. I’ve had the privilege of teaching in academic settings for over 15 years, and I am deeply invested in cultivating inclusive learning environments and supporting professional development.
