I became interested in working for FEMA following Hurricane Katrina, and now I build emergency preparedness exercises for the National Preparedness Division in Region IX. I work with State, Territory, local, and tribal governments, as well as private-sector and non-governmental partners to design, conduct, and evaluate exercises that test and validate emergency plans, policies, and procedures. Additionally, I keep my hand in the public health side (MPH from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Pandemic Coordinator for Baltimore City Health Department) by working closely with colleagues from HHS and other agencies to develop response plans for H1N1, anthrax, and other similar threats.
