Avia DGPH Student Spotlight 2022鈥淢y research/thesis topic is, 鈥淭he effects of Covid-19 vaccines on menstruation: Are women with underlying reproductive health issues more at risk of experiencing possible changes鈥.聽聽Through Tuskegee鈥檚 MPH program, I was able to intern with Sepsis Alliance and bridge gaps in sepsis care, and improve equity in this area through the development of an advocacy toolkit to distribute to sepsis survivors so that they can push their legislators for improved sepsis care.聽

I was also able to utilize the skills I learned through my public health courses and was hired as a clinical research coordinator recruiting and aiding patients as they overcome addiction.聽Avia Spotlight-DGPH

My goal is to become a genetic counselor and am currently waiting to be matched to a genetic counseling program. From there, I plan to earn my Ph.D. in Neurogenetics studying Neurodevelopment diseases. I plan to apply the Public Health experiences I鈥檝e had in areas like public health genetics and work to bring genetic counseling to rural communities and make young adults aware of the field.聽Additionally, the resources the program offers helped me hone my cv and apply for genetic counseling programs and got interviews with top programs like the University of Pennsylvania.鈥
