Achievement of excellence in diversity and inclusion resonates as a defining characteristic at the intersection of my academic experience and career goals. I view social justice as personal and social growth informed from marginalized scholarship including critical race theory, intersectional theory, and decoloniality. As such, my JEDI work is motivated by existing community based efforts to make our society more fair, just, and equitable. A father of Epidemiology, W.E.B. Du Bois described the double consciousness, in which scientific knowledge is enhanced by the unique perspective of scientists from structurally marginalized communities. As an Epidemiologist, I work for equitable representation through mentorship and advocacy to improve research and science dissemination that rebuilds medical trust and improves vast racial health disparities.
