I presented a poster at the Military Health System Research Symposium 2025 entitled “Open-source estimation of shade availability at military bases in the United States.” I presented an initial workflow of estimating the shadow footprint (shade) of obstacles on United States (US) Military facilities using the US Naval Academy campus as an example.

I co-authored an article in Frontiers in Public Health entitled “Descriptive analysis of municipal policies addressing shade in eight southwest and northeast states in the United States” led by Dr. David Buller.

I co-authored an article in Environmental Research entitled “Ambient air pollution in critical windows of exposure and spontaneous miscarriage in a preconception cohort” led by Dr. Anne Marie Jukic. We assessed the potential relationship between ambient air pollution and risk of spontaneous pregnancy loss for participants within the Time to Conceive study.

I co-authored an article in the Science of The Total Environment entitled “Prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors associated with residential natural hazard risk” led by Dr. Kaitlyn Lawrence. We assessed the potential relationship between CVD-related risk factors (i.

I co-authored an article in Cancer Research entitled “Integration of Germline and Somatic Variation Improves Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Risk Stratification” led by Dr. Aubrey Hubbard. We investigated whether inclusion of a chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)-associated polygenic score and two common types of clonal hematopoiesis (i.

I co-authored an article in the International Journal of Health Geographics entitled “Geographic patterns in wildland fire exposures and county-level lung cancer mortality in the United States” led by Dr. Richard Remigio.

I co-authored an article in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute entitled “Associations of self-identified race and ethnicity and genetic ancestry with mortality among cancer survivors” led by Dr. Jacqueline Vo and Dr.

I co-authored a commentary in the Epidemiology entitled “Advancing reproducible research through version control technology” led by Dr. Ghassan Hamra. We introduce version control and explain why we believe all epidemiologists should use it within their workflows to support reproducible research.

I presented a lightning talk at the American Geophysical Union Annual Meeting 2024 entitled “Ambient PM2.5 exposure and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in a large U.S.-based cohort.” I presented initial results from a project conducted by Inam Ghulamhussain who I mentored while I was a postdoctoral Cancer Prevention Fellow and he was a National Institutes of Health Summer Intern at the National Cancer Institute.

I first authored an article in Spatial and Spatio-temporal Epidemiology entitled “Multiple ‘spaces’: using wildlife surveillance, climatic variables, and spatial satitics to identify and map a climatic niche for endemic plague in California”.
