About Ash Schafer
After a successful career in hospitality, I decided to return to school to pursue my passion, public health. I graduated with my Master\'s of Public Health concentrating in Environmental Health. After graduation, I interned with the Disease Investigation and Surveillance Department at the Chester County Health Department. The internship led to a position as a Disease Investigation Specialist, and ultimately a leadership role in the Disease Investigation and Surveillance Department. I am happy to be a resource and answer any questions for anyone interested in switching careers or becoming an adult student.
