My Graduate Research
I accepted the strategic communications Master's program at UNC - Chapel Hill because I knew it would take me beyond writing and into strategy. The first skill can support any strategy; the second can support any team. As a professional I need to do both.
The strategic communications track allowed me to specialize in both medical and health communications, just as COVID-19 made both fields crucial and salient for everyone. Graduate study gave me a near-perfect communications laboratory of professors, experts, and peers — I've had the chance to mix into, combine with, and react to brilliant minds in health and medical communications.
These writing samples demonstrate the research which I've created in this space. But it's incomplete for the moment, because I have yet to submit and defend my final thesis project: an internal communications guide which healthcare systems can use to support their providers' long-term telemedicine use.
