Graduate of the Master of Public Health - Social and Behavioural Health Sciences program at the University of Toronto. My approach to public health is guided by the belief that we must set up venues for dialogue and collaboration within communities to begin building self-sufficiency and resilience. When solving any single issue, we have the potential to become better aware of local resources, assets, and capacities, and develop the know-how to use each to improve our quality of life when current and future circumstances demand change. I want to work with community members, organizations, government bodies, and many other stakeholders to co-create solutions that meet the needs of everyone involved. I have a background in public health theory and developed my skillset in-line with the core public health competencies, such as policy analysis, and program planning and implementation. My professional experiences have trained me in qualitative and quantitative research methods across the social sciences, including literature reviews; program evaluation; data collection, analysis, and synthesis; and knowledge translation.
