About Me

Bio

I've worked in the fields of behavioral and community health for 15 years, including efforts related to children, youth, and families; well-being and wellness; trauma, healing, and resilience; identity, culture, and bias; and social justice.

My interests include broader, interdisciplinary topics related to public health communication, population health, health disparities, and media effects.

 

My work includes training – both in-person and virtual –, facilitation, technical and academic writing, curriculum development, and product development on interdisciplinary topics related to public health and disparities. I create fact sheets, infographics, briefs, reports, and other content formats to facilitate knowledge transfer; and have experience communicating to audiences via webinars, podcasts, conferences, and other platforms. I strive to integrate an equity lens to all of the projects I engage in, as well as to integrate public health and population health principles and strategies. I center my work around Wellness First, and aim to bring an authentic, impactful, innovative voice to the spaces I work in.

 

I am a Founding Member of the Society for Health Communication, and maintain memberships with The College for Behavioral Health Leadership and the American Public Health Association (APHA). In 2022, I had the honor of receiving a Mental Health Section Award for my contributions to APHA.

 

In addition to operating my own business, I often collaborate with other small, woman-owned, Black-owned businesses, and work as a consultant with HumanKind Workshop and Inspired Vision, LLC.
