I’m The Gazette’s healthcare reporter, working to help you understand what’s impacting your health, why, and what you can do about it. I earned a Master’s degree in health, environment and science journalism from Northwestern where I wrote about intersex health, particulate matter pollution and lead contamination biosensors. I love hearing from people, so don’t hesitate to reach out and share what’s on your mind! Oh, and if you ever find me squatting on the sidewalk looking at the ground, don’t worry — I’m just checking out a cool bug.
