I double majored in biology and psychology in college. I thought I had to choose—I could either be a biologist or a social scientist. But I realized epidemiology would allow me integrate the two areas, which is what drew me to public health.
What gives me hope is that people at the School of Public Health are here and not elsewhere because they believe in this idea of helping to advance the public's health. That inspires me.
I happened upon public health when I was looking into nutrition programs. I liked the idea of integrating nutrition at the individual level with a population perspective. That narrowed my search for programs down a lot, and U of M was on my radar because one of my best friends came to law school here.
I love interacting with prospective students and undergrads. Mentorship is such a critical piece of me.
Through Innovation in Action, I connected to students across campus to find solutions to public health problems. It becomes a big part of your life when you're doing it.
