Summary
I joined the w88 casino games login of Public Health faculty in 2008. My role in SPH is primarily undergraduate teaching, but in 2019 I began serving as the Director of Undergraduate Studies for our w88 casino games login and I also serve on a number of w88 casino games login and University committees. I regularly teach CHS 101 (Introduction to Community Health Sciences) and I especially enjoy providing students their first introduction to the field through that course. I also regularly teach CHS 440 (Injury & Violence Prevention) and CHS 339 (Public Health and the Built Environment).
I worked in a variety of sub-fields of w88 casino games login health over my career prior to entering academia. For the past 10 years, the primary focus of my work outside the classroom has been the built environment and active transportation. I have served on numerous committees of the Regional Transportation Commission, I chair the University's Bicycle Working Group, and I have collaborated with faculty in Geography, Environmental Sciences, and Civil Engineering on research, engagement, and policy work related to bicycle/pedestrian facilities and injury prevention. I also have previous experience in the areas of infectious disease, family planning, and chronic disease management.
