Environmental Epidemiology
12+ Years of Post-Graduate Epidemiology and Biostatistics experience—with special focus on cancer and chronic disease epidemiology.
My Approach
Mission
My mission is to apply epidemiology, computational toxicology, and bioinformatics to more holistically approach research involving the human condition, pharmacokinetics, and chemical and radiological exposures placed in the environment by industry, government, or research labs.
Values
Transparency, Honesty, & Integrity— I strive to make sure my research is contextualized, presented clearly and plainly for all to learn from, and ethically focused on the humanization of health data.
Flexibility & Resilience — In all my work, I roll with the punches and stand back up, and build relationships with community to support their furthered resilience and capacity for advocacy.
Innovation — I collaborate with artists, traditional ecological knowledge experts, international scientists, and strive to learn something new each day through building meaningful long term relationships.
Impact — By putting forward rigorous, holistic research, my work informs environmental and public health policy that impacts the lives of people and vulnerable populations for the better.
Integrative, Holistic Research Methods— I push to make my research more publicly available, culturally relevant, and to always take an integrative approach to developing and implementing a research plan.
Projects & Publications
Nuclear Materials & True Human Security
Nuclear toxicology is still a burgeoning field of research in many aspects. The human body can be exposed to nuclear materials throughout the nuclear weapon life cycle. Much of these environmental toxicants are radioisotopes, heavy metals and disproportionately affect Indigenous nations.
Environmental Toxicology & Epidemiology
My research expertise spans in vitro, in vivo, in silico, and on site sampling toxicological studies. I have worked across the public health field by working in higher education, the United States federal government, pharmaceutical industry, and clinical setting.
Scientific Computing & BioInformatics
My skills in computational engineering expands across benefit-risk analyses, advanced predictive modeling, machine learning, mapping, cluster analysis, and more. I code in Python, R, SAS, SQL, and more, in addition to creating graphics in ArcGIS, Tableau, and GraphPad.
