Get to Know Me
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Sciences from the University of South Florida (2016) and completed my Master of Public Health from the University of Pennsylvania, where I specialized in healthcare administration. I began my MBA studies at the Wharton Business School and completed my degree at Saint Leo University in an accelerated seven-month program.
During my time at the University of Pennsylvania, I was deeply involved in public health initiatives focused on the opioid epidemic in Kensington, Philadelphia. I served as the Primary Care Team Lead and contributed to the Quality Improvement team at Prevention Point Philadelphia, a harm reduction organization. In this role, I helped deliver preventive healthcare services and promote safe practices among one of the most vulnerable, opioid-dependent populations in the region.
My academic work reflects a strong commitment to evidence based healthcare and policy. I completed two graduate theses: the first examining healthcare provider perspectives on the driving readiness of children with and without autism, and the second exploring correlations between Medicare Open Payments data and opioid prescribing patterns in Florida.
Outside of work, I am passionate about traveling the world with my husband, staying active in the gym, and playing and watching professional tennis. I also cherish time spent with my husband, family, and our three beloved cats.
