What has been the single most rewarding experience of your career/studies so far?

The single most rewarding experience within my studies so far is being able to make new connections and networking with people working on different projects that display and portray the varying perspective of public health and its importance on specific and general communities.

What do you think is the biggest challenge that the public health field should be focusing on?

The biggest challenge that the public health field should be focusing on, in my opinion, should be the immunization rates within the United States and trying to prevent the “already” preventable infectious diseases that are now returning due to misinformation, wrong education and miscommunications between the health professional and public.
