Public Service

 Public service requires a commitment to equity, accountability, inclusion, and the responsible use of governmental and nonprofit resources. Throughout my MPA program and professional experience in community health, I strengthened my ability to analyze public problems, understand the ethical responsibility of administrators, and recommend solutions that improve outcomes for the community. This competency reflects my dedication to person first values, transparent decision making, and service delivery approaches that center the needs of vulnerable populations.

The three artifacts below demonstrate how I apply public service principles in real policy and organizational contexts. Each piece connects back to the core values of the field, including fairness, responsiveness, and a commitment to improving the lives of marginalized communities.
