Biography
What attracted you to the health metrics field?
Although I had never heard of health metrics before discovering IHME, this field fell directly at the intersection of my two previous academic interests: understanding inequality and statistical analysis. In college I majored in sociology and took a class called Urban Health, which had a special focus on health disparities. I saw how closely health disparities are tied to disparities in other areas of life and decided that I could actually make a difference in health. After working at the Chicago Center for HIV Elimination I decided to pursue research as a career. Since I had some previous statistics and coding experience, IHME seemed like a great opportunity to both work in health and use my more technical skill set.
What work are you doing at IHME?
I am a member of the demographics team. Our most important task is to produce overall mortality estimates for the Global Burden of Disease for each country, sex, and year. I am parallelizing the code that we use to model mortality shocks, which are sudden increases in mortality due to wars or natural disasters. We have a great team, and I have enjoyed getting thrown into the deep end of the code.
How do you think your experience at IHME will contribute to your future work?
I don’t have defined plans for my time after IHME, but I hope that working here will give me the perspective and experience to decide what path I want to take. The faculty and staff here have such a wide and interesting array of career trajectories that I will be exposed to multiple options. The PBF program is highly focused on giving us the experiences and developing the skills we need to be successful in whatever we choose to pursue. I look forward to continuing to learn over the course of the next few years.
