WORK HISTORY
Program Director @NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital
New York, NY, US
I lead a team of 9 public health practitioners working in partnership with community-based organizations, emergency food providers, public schools, and health care teams. Our portfolio includes NYP CHALK (Choosing Healthy and Active Lifestyles for Kids), Food FARMacy, Youth Market, My Block, and Health for Life. These initiatives seek to leverage community strengths in response to evolving needs. Together, they aim to advance health equity. Our focus areas are nutrition and physical activity. Our core strategies include: investing in future healthcare & public health leaders (including paid opportunities for youth and adults with shared lived experience to help guide our programs), responding to food insecurity, improving the built environment, activating public spaces, and building resilient communities through partnership with community-based organizations.
