ABOUT ME

I love family, friends, food, traveling, hiking, running, music, volleyball, yoga and cooking. I graduated from the University of Virginia with a degree in Nanomedicine Engineering and from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health with a Master of Science in Public Health in International Health- Human Nutrition.

My mission is to contribute to research to motivate programs and policies that support nutrition-sensitive sustainable agriculture, enhance food sovereignty and foster a healthy and happy world.
