About Me

I am currently a Health Systems Research Fellow at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, working on projects in Cambodia, India, and Pakistan. Prior to this, I served with the Peace Corps in Kazakhstan, worked with a community-based health organization in Ghana, served refugees in the United States, and worked in racial health disparities research. My interests are in community health, sustainability, and local food systems. I speak Kazakh (advanced), and Spanish (beginner). I am a holistic gardener and a dog walker, and live in the UK with Matt Kusner and our superdog, Nora Ruth.
