I am a health policy and systems researcher with expertise in health priority setting, consulting with marginalized groups, and examining the voices of the marginalized in global health discourse. I am a member of the Emerging Voices for Global Health movement, a thematic working group of Health Systems Global. Throughout my career, I have worked in international and interdisciplinary consortia, which, together with my field experience and academic training, inform my theory of change: that communities, when engaged in critical dialogue, will solve relevant problems and act collectively to implement an agenda that will achieve their goals. My work at the Canadian Society for International Health entails building a community of practice that engages practitioners, academics, and policy makers to further Canada's international commitment to implement health related SDGs.
