Today, I had the opportunity to address the incoming @CDCgov Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) officers and Laboratory Leadership Service (LLS) fellows. I shared my journey into public health and outlined our road ahead in building the future of public health together.
I defended my dissertation today, and it feels a little surreal. I’m so grateful to the family, friends, classmates, and mentors who have supported me along this journey. I was so surprised how many people tuned in for the presentation and helped us celebrate. Feeling the ❤️
