    PROGRAMS MANAGER - ADMINISTRATION

    I am passionate about improving health by addressing health disparities and strengthening community health. I grew up as a ‘third-culture kid’ and am thus passionate about empowering young girls to live up to their full potential and improving the lives of individuals living with limited resources. I am excited to work with the ACESWorld team because I believe in the power of education and opportunity.

    PROGRAM MANAGER - HEALTH PROGRAMS

    Having lived in several different regions of the United States, I have witnessed a broad array of social and economic drivers and their influence on the health of our society. With a background in health systems strengthening and information management, I have seen patient challenges with social and health inequity at the bedside and on a macro level. In addition, I bring lived experience in advocating for care ranging from chronic disease to pediatric behavioral health. I aim to use this knowledge and acquired skills to influence incremental, sustainable change for the health of our communities, the global population, and our planet.
