I am currently a graduate student at Columbia University, pursuing my doctorate in Behavioral Health with a focus on the gendered differences in care, access, and treatment, and their relationship to health behaviors. I work as a researcher at Columbia Medical Center - New York Presbyterian Hospital where I focus on vaccine uptake and completion and STI testing motivations. Previously, I was at UCSF Children's Hospital and School of Medicine, where I designed clinical intervention and programs for our long term inpatient populations and incorporate dthem into our medical student and residency education. Before UC, I developed intervention and education programs at community-based AIDS organizations for clients at high-risk for HIV and co-infection of other infectious diseases.
