<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">
<b><i>Q: What inspired you to pursue a career in Public Health?</i></b></div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">
<b><i>βββββ</i></b>For me, public health has always been more about impact than career. I sought out laboratory experience because I wanted to do something where I could see a practical difference in the world around me. I grew up in a rural town that had limited
opportunities for advancement in science education. I took the basic biology and chemistry classes in high school, but we did not have advanced equipment or the ability to take AP or college level credit. So, jumping into hands on lab experience in public
health was a dream opportunity for me. My first project was focused on developing point of use water filters for communities with inadequate water supplies. Even today these types of filters are used after disaster situations such as hurricanes and fires that
affect our state every year. </div>

<b><i>Q: Can you share a defining moment in your career? </i></b></div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">
<b><i>ββββ</i></b><i>β</i>I donβt have one defining moment, but coming to Campbell has been a defining moment in that I restructured the focus of my work to center around rural communities. This shift has been very important to my goals as a researcher, and
I plan to continue incorporate rural community goals into this work. </div>

<b><i>Q: What challenges have you faced as a woman in science, and how did you overcome them?</i></b></div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">
<b><i>ββββββ</i></b>Everyone faces challenges, and I donβt like to think of mine as uniquely centered on my gender. I will say that I have often been the only woman in my program, in the room, in the group, etc. at times. This can be a challenging place to
be but, in environmental health in particular, some of the jobs are dirty, think of septic tanks and water treatment plants. I find that being open to all perspectives and brining my own training and experience is the right way to approach these situations,
even if my voice can be quiet at times. </div>

<b><i>Q: How has your work contributed to the advancement of healthcare and science?</i></b></div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">
<b><i>ββββββ</i></b>My work has focused on the advancement of environmental public health, in particular the microbiological evaluation of technologies, microbiological detection of pathogens, as well as examining problems from a One Health perspective. At
this stage in my career, I believe that my work has contributed to continuing environmental applications of these technologies and serving communities that continue to need support, particularly water related resources for either water purification or testing. </div>

<b><i>Q: What advice would you give to students, especially women, pursuing careers in science?</i></b></div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">
<b><i>ββββββ</i></b>The advice I give to all students is that the first thing you have to think about is what you are trying to do with the time that you have. What is your goal? Once you figure that out, your career will make more sense and many of the questions
you worry about and ask yourself to make more sese. All of us are looking for a purpose and in public health, service drive life can help us fulfill that mission, but it is important when you start pursuing a career to think about your goals. Donβt wait until
the middle, start thinking about these things from the very beginning.</div>

<b><i>Q: What do you find most rewarding about working in education and mentoring students?</i></b></div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="direction: ltr; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif, serif, EmojiFont; font-size: 12pt; color: black;">
<b><i>ββββββ</i></b>The most rewarding part about working in education and mentoring students is seeing them succeed. I have students who have gone on to do great things and I enjoy both seeing them succeed, first in the classroom and in our program, as they
learn how to do public health work. Then I also enjoy seeing them succeed out in the community where they often go on to have a direct impact on the projects and communities they learned to service during our program. </div>

<b><i>Q: How do you think we can continue to support and uplift women?</i></b></div>

<b><i>ββββββ</i></b>For me, the best way to uplift women is to build networks. This might mean that I spend time getting to know women who do different types of research than I do, but it has allowed me to connect students with other public health practitioners
locally and in other areas. In supporting women in public health, it is a complicated journey in that requires the support of other people. Building these networks is one of the best ways to continue to support and uplift anyone pursuing a career in public
health. </div>

<b><i>Q: What is one piece of advice you wish you had received earlier in your career?</i></b></div>

<b><i>βββββ</i></b>βSomething I wish I had known earlier was that it is OK to ask for help. If you are overwhelmed, be honest with yourself and tell someone else. Public health/healthcare/any work we do in CPHS is a team sport, that means that we are not doing
this work alone, so that means your projects are not 100% your own. Most people need to hear this at some point in their career. </div>

<b><i>ββββββ</i></b>I think that this is a weekly challenge, and one that my students probably think that I cannot do (I am notorious for answering emails on the weekend), but for me it is more about mental space rather than balancing personal and professional.
I do not have a firm boundary when it comes to work and life, but rather I keep metal space between what I do at work and home to make sure I feel like I have a break from work. My first question in every class is βwhat did you do this week that was funβ,
because I want to remind my students that this time (Graduate school) is real life, they should have fun. The same is true in my own life. I try to balance the work with the fun and sometimes that means I need to answer my emails on Saturday so I can go to
the gym on Tuesday. </div>

<b><i>ββββββ</i></b>I just watched a new series on Netflix called βToxic Townβ, they did a really good job of showing the harm that environmental hazards can do to communities. This town (Corby) in the United Kingdom was the first to show a link between airborne
contaminants and human health issues, in this case birth defects. </div>
