My latest: A solo-authored editorial in @AMJPublicHealth. In this piece I bridge my training in both #publichealth & #urbanplanning. I even open w/ a stage play & infrastructure analogy that I’m especially proud of. Enjoy! #PrePrimaryPrevention doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2

Just reflecting on the weekend & as honored as I am to have given a TEDx talk, I’m even more honored to have friends & colleagues that drove 4 hrs down from Chicago or 2 hrs over from Louisville to Bloomington, IN to hear me speak & support me. I’m so incredibly appreciative! 🙏🏾
