I am a Research Assistant Professor with Oregon Health & Science University’s Knight Cancer Institute. My current research is focused on improving HPV vaccination rates among adolescents, implementing a coordinated approach to lung cancer screening, and increasing access to cervical cancer screening among women who are seasonal farmworkers. I apply a health disparities research lens to my research focus, exploring strategies on how to identify and address individual, system, and policy levels barriers to uptake of cancer prevention and control evidence-based strategies. The expertise to carry out the proposed study began with my doctoral training in health systems and policy. During graduate school, I investigated health system and policy level facilitators and barriers to health care access for vulnerable populations. I conducted research on equity of access to health care in rural Vietnam, the effectiveness of culturally competent health system interventions in 3 European health systems in facilitating access and quality of health care for migrant populations, and a comparative policy analysis of migrant health policies adopted by 11 European nations. My dissertation, Migrant Health Policies in the European Union: A Comparative Policy Analysis (Neal Wallace, PhD, Chair) identified policy variation using a two-phased analytic process that included content analysis followed by typological analysis. Upon earning a PhD from the OHSU-PSU School of Public Health, I accepted postdoctoral appointment with the Knight Cancer Institute’s Community Outreach Research and Engagement team at Oregon Health & Science University. I am a Sylff fellow with the Tokyo Foundation for Policy Research.
