About Me

After graduating from Yale University in 2006, I headed to DC, searching for a job that would allow me to be of service to disadvantaged populations. After working for a government contractor in health communication in Washington, DC, I packed my bags and volunteered in Mozambique, assisting with a capacity building program for Mozambican NGOs working in HIV/AIDS. I currently work in Argentina as a volunteer with a community health center that treats people living with HIV.

I am passionate about public health, especially in developing countries which is the perfect outlet to feed my love of travel and social change.
