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, I 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 />11
