Summary

I study health disparities at the intersection of infectious diseases, substance use, and unstable housing. I also develop structural interventions to better support clinical workers in providing culturally-specific and trauma-informed care for marginalized patients. Much of my international work is based in China where I have lived and worked for several years.

Expertise

HIV, STIs, infectious disease dynamics, intervention science, sexual health, healthcare stigma.
