Summary

As a recent graduate with a BS in Public Health, I am thrilled as an intern with National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA). My academic background and experience in healthcare equipped me with a solid foundation in epidemiology, policy analysis, and health promotion. During my internship, I applied these skills to support initiatives related to environmental health and radiological safety. This experience allowed me to bridge my public health expertise with national security objectives, enhancing my understanding of how health principles can drive effective environmental and radiological threats.
