WORK HISTORY
Senior Director, Center for Global Research and Policy @Trumerit Cgfns
As Senior Director of the Center for Global Research and Policy, I catalyze a robust research and development agenda that will contribute to global human resources for health scholarship through inquiry around the global health workforce, care delivery, and lifelong learning issues, broadly defined. This work encompasses both basic research to advance intellectual inquiry and applied research around operationalizing concepts. A primary goal of the Center is contribution to the evolving needs of global healthcare and health professionals worldwide. As the world faces an unprecedented health workforce crisis that begs for disruptive thinking to deliver practical solutions, our Center commits to disseminating results of research through publications, policy briefs, and presentations, nationally and globally.
