I am active with my <br />daughter s school (Carrboro High School) and am a member of a local political activism <br />group. <br />Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: <br />I have not served on any such boards. <br />Board of Health <br />Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br />I have a law degree with a concentration in health law, and a MSPH in health policy and <br />management. I was also a board member (including three years as president) of a community <br />health center in Gaston County, NC, before I moved to Chapel Hill. I am currently on the faculty <br />of the Gillings School of Global Public Health at UNC, where I teach courses in the US health <br />system and health policy. I have a long-standing commitment to improving the health of <br />underserved communities, including communities of color, immigrants and the LGBT <br />community. I have worked with student teams who have completed projects for the OCBoH, <br />Piedmont Health, and other community organizations, which has given me great insight into the <br />health needs of the county and the active role of the OCBoH in promoting health in our <br />community. As someone who has a background in both law and public health, and who has <br />worked in management, programs and policy, I think that I have a unique skill set that would add <br />to the already strong board. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />15
