Prior to joining the ECU Department of Public Health in July 2011, she worked with the University of Illinois and the Chicago Department of Public Health and the Universities of North Florida and Florida, and the Duval County Health Department, most recently as the Director of the Center for Public Health Practice-Based Research.
