During graduate school and for two years afterward I worked at a local <br /> continuing care retirement community and acted as the wellness coordinator for residents and <br /> staff. My job included helping senior residents navigate the community s health and wellness <br /> resources and accessing services they required. Since 2017, 1 have worked at UNC HealthCare <br /> as the Trauma Program s injury prevention coordinator. One of my main focus areas is senior <br /> adults and I plan and implement evidence-based programs that reduce falls injuries and motor <br /> vehicle accidents. I do falls prevention presentations and programs for local independent senior <br /> communities in Orange County and partner frequently with the Orange County Department on <br /> Aging to provide resources. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> In my professional work I have worked with a wide range of seniors, some of which who have <br /> been resources at their fingertips and many who don t. I have learned a lot about the challenges <br /> seniors face in Orange County such as transportation, isolation, and hunger. I want to help <br /> seniors not only in my professional work but in a volunteer capacity as well. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> I do promote senior programs in my job. However, the programs I advocate seniors utilize are <br /> cost free and the UNC Trauma Program does not charge any fees for the programs we provide <br /> the community. Our mission is to reduce injury. <br />
