Health Education Specialist passionate about a Tobacco Free nation. Tweets are all my opinion, RTs do not equal endorsements unless they’re #IUBB related.

Today I think I hit true “cool health educator” (it’s a thing) status and used a meme in my presentation to @MarianUniv Nursing and Public Health students. I don’t think I’ve ever been prouder of my work. Also, the future of nursing and PH is bright with those students in charge!

Very important action taken today by @POTUS, @SecAzar and @FDACommissioner to combat the epidemic of youth e-cigarette use. We cannot allow flavored e-cigarettes to addict a new generation of kids. #NoEcigs4kids https://t.co/fzydCtaB6N

Shoutout to @Buzzfeed and @skbaer for posting these stories. While we are hearing a lot about black market products being linked to lung illness, it's important to know the chemicals in store-bough vape products can also cause severe health problems. https://t.co/vGGbHjbWqT

Why is @itsdougthepug in the latest @truthorange ad? "JUUL is a cultural phenomenon — a product that was designed to appeal to youth and launched targeting youth. Our goal is to use culture to win back the minds of youth and young adults," says @easche. https://t.co/ZOFFLkLiEN

"Plastic straws and bags have received widespread attention as pollutants. But another even bigger, plastic problem has been slipping under the radar - cigarette filters."
