Early in my career, I was a school psychologist. In that role, I created educational opportunities for children with special needs and special talents in the era before children had a legal right to an education that accommodated their abilities. When the children gained that right, my innovative models evolved to become what is known as Individual Education Plans (IEPs). 

My concern for children led me back to graduate school. There, I learned more about the first system that impacted their lives: healthcare. I earned an Interdisciplinary Ph.D., interfacing the health sciences, social sciences, law, and journalism. Since then, I’ve made it my life’s mission to improve health for people of all ages because healthy people are more able to work towards the peace and prosperity I wish for this world.
