EXPERIENCE
MOBILE LEAD TESTING UNIT
I am committed to conducting community-driven research that has a real-world impact. My latest project involved working with the Newark Water Coalition, a grassroots organization, to measure household lead exposure sources in 315 homes in Newark, New Jersey. Through our findings, we are working to create local and culturally-appropriate strategies to reduce exposure and safeguard public health.
YOUTH MENTORSHIP
I am committed to supporting young people in achieving their academic goals. With the Newark Water Coalition and Peoples Public Lab, I am leading a youth mentor-mentee program, the Waterbender Scholars Program, we dedicated to supporting and nurturing students' academic progress, professional development, and mental well being.
YOUTH PROGRAMMING
The Waterbenders Scholars Program goals are:
1) Support students through applying for college, entering college, and throughout their academic careers.
2) Mentor-mentee program
3) Provide paid internship and research opportunities.
