Research Interests
Prior to joining the PhD program, I worked at the San Francisco Department of Public Health researching social determinants of health for trans, gender nonconforming, and nonbinary communities. As a doctoral candidate living with disabilities, I leverage lived experiences and build extensive skills in epidemiological/econometric methodologies to identify policy determinants of disparities in substance use and poor mental health outcomes, particularly for sexual and gender minority populations. Ultimately, I aim to translate my research findings to positive, structural, anti-capitalist impact.
