My expertise encompasses understanding and analysis of multifaceted public health policy issues, productive negotiation, creative and innovative thinking, and attention to detail in the public health policy arena. I work on complex public health policy development, regulatory and statutory evaluation and composition, legal and regulatory analysis, and review and consultation on sensitive legal and public policy issues. Currently managing an amazing team of senior analysts and providing strategic planning and thought leadership around issues related to global food safety.
