A few years ago, I never would have imagined I’d be pursuing a doctorate in global public health, conducting research on healthy aging, or traveling to Kenya as part of my DrPH residency at Indiana University. (That’s right — I’m going back to Africa at the end of May!)
Life has a funny way of opening doors we never planned to walk through.
I’m deeply grateful to the team at Indiana University News for sharing this feature story about my journey, including how I re-ignited my purpose through education, public health, and community-centered work to help people live healthier, more connected lives as they age.
I appreciate the opportunity to share a little of my story and the work that continues to inspire me every day.
