Arts and Design

I view art as a way to make meaning out of the issues I care about, including public health issues.

Animation

I have a background in animation. I've made short films including an animated documentary about the food for sale in a Bodega. I've also used animation to make a vlog series about health communication.

As more of a creative outlet, I've also gotten into making work/study background videos:

Game Design

I love games as ways to make shared language around uncommon experiences. I've designed one board game to do so around public health so far:

• UNFUNDABLE: A board game about the collaborative yet competitive world of academic public health.

Teaching

I incorporate the arts into workshops introducing the concepts I study. I find it helpful to relate these big ideas to more everyday experiences. Here are a few examples from my master's thesis:

• What does health equity feel like?
