My work at the Center for Communicating Science and COMPASS center aligns with WHC's mission by fostering meaningful connections between researchers, practitioners, and communities. As a project coordinator for community outreach, I support initiatives that help people communicate their ideas, research, and lived experiences in ways that resonate across differences. This focus on dialogue, trust-building, and shared understanding reflects WHC's commitment to centering community voices and advancing equitable, people-centered approaches to health and well-being.
