Portfolio

Vaccine Advocacy Brochure

I wrote and produced this brochure for a leading international NGO’s advocacy campaign. The brochure reached policymakers around the world, encouraging them to increase support for strong vaccine supply chains. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services used content, including recommendations, from the brochure for a global immunization report.

Maternal Mental Health Article

This article summarizes evidence on art-based interventions to boost maternal mental health, an overlooked issue. This piece helped Simuka Africa, a United Nations-affiliated organization, secure funding for their global mental health and arts initiative.

Nutrition Website

I managed all aspects of website production for a client starting up a global nutrition research program. I wrote all of the original content, oversaw the web vendor selection process, and coordinated development for this site.

Global Health Success Story

This story took me to rural Lesotho, where I met Mamorena, a community health worker, and her thriving baby. Donors have selected several of my success stories to appear in U.S. government strategies and reports to Congress.

Health Finance Project Report

This product was one of several final country reports that I developed for a large, global health finance and governance program. For each report, I collaborated with the client’s team (including health economists and country experts) to gather data, develop stories, and create the reports.

Human Interest Story

I wrote this article because I was inspired by the subject, an artist who survived abuse and became a powerful advocate for the rights of women and girls worldwide. The article aimed to increase visibility for her artwork.
