Hey, I’m happy you’re here.
Thanks for stopping by!
I’m a data analyst in the Urban Health Lab at the University of Pennsylvania. My research interests include applications of biomedical data science in the public and population health fields. I work on projects that use electronic health record (EHR) data and geospatial analyses to explore how the neighborhood environment and access to urban nature can impact the health of individuals in Philadelphia.

I enjoy using R to optimize my data science workflow and have noticed it making guest appearances elsewhere in my life. I’m certified as an RStudio Tidyverse Instructor and am passionate about R education as a way to build power in communities. Keep up with my R tinkering in my blog and presentations in talks.
