Short bio
I am a PhD candidate in Population, Health & Place at the Spatial Sciences Institute, USC. My research combines epidemiology and spatial analytics to uncover how place shapes disease outcomes and guide targeted public health interventions. I am also passionate about advancing spatial thinking in public health research and education. Outside of research, I am an avid distance runner and have recently completed the Los Angeles Marathon
