I have been accepted into the Colorado School of Public Health and will be working towards my MPH in Global Health Systems, Management, and Policy. My goal is to work on policy-level public health change that will reduce disparities experienced in the US and globally. I am committed to improving the health of others and I am really excited for my next steps in Public Health. 

I pursued a Bachelor of Science in Public Health and a minor in Business Fundamentals. I am also part of the 5-Year BA/BS-MPH program with CU Denver and the Colorado School of Public Health. My selected concentration is in Health Systems, Management, and Policy. Upon graduation, I hope to pursue a career in Healthcare Management and Administration.
