I am a Policy and Research Intern at the New York State Health Foundation. The Foundation is a private organization committed to improving the health outcomes of New Yorkers. In my role, I engage in team projects related to health coverage, maternal health, food insecurity, and the COVID-19 pandemic. I create map data visualizations documenting changing population demographics, conduct literature reviews regarding food insecurity and telemedicine, and assist in writing articles related to public health messaging campaigns. My colleagues are extremely engaging and inspirational, and delegate me assignments in projects that allow me to hold real responsibility that allows me to have a voice in decision making.
