This site highlights my professional skills and practical experiences achieved through the Master of Public Health Program at San Francisco State University.
I have worked in health education and promotion for over 15 years. Much of my work has been at the individual level and driven by the belief that in order to be an effective health educator, I must personally practice what I teach. Although this continues to fuel my enthusiasm, I realize it isn’t enough.
Through this program’s strong emphasis on social justice, I have learned how social, economic, and environmental determinants influence individual behaviors and more broadly how it impacts our society as a whole. Moreover, it is apparent that these factors significantly affect at risk populations.
