Been lurking this site for some time, finally getting around to the #introduction post!

My name is Ellie 👋👋 I'm a #publichealth worker based in Nevada. I'm in an #epidemiology program mostly doing #covid #shoeleather & #genomics work.

I'm interested in #SDoH, #LegalEpi, #PHEthx, #PHLaw and am currently preparing for law school to further my studies in those areas.

Nice to 'meet' you all and I'm excited to join in on the #twittermigration fun!
