- About Me:
- I'm an applied anthropologist working in the field of public health and am currently Associate Director of Health Promotion and Education at Western Michigan University. As an undergrad I studied biological and medical anthropology, where I did research on diabetes and other chronic "diseases of civilization." I completed a master's in global health and have spent the last two years doing community work, for non profits in the San Francisco Bay Area and am now in higher education. My current work is focused on alcohol prevention and I'm interested in maintaining a connection to anthro through my own endeavors and the work of my grandfather.

I am an undergraduate at NC State University and have been asked by my anthropology professor, Dr. Tim Wallace, as part of the course, Applied Anthropology, I am taking from him to learn more about what it means to be an applied anthropologist as a career. I wondered whether I might be able to ask you a few questions. Dr. Wallace wants the interviews to be in person or by telephone and so I hope it might be possible for me to interview you at a time of your convenience. I really hope you can assist me and will thus help further my understanding of what it takes to become an applied anthropologist or to work in the field of applied or practicing anthropology.
I know you must be incredibly busy this time of year, but if you are willing to help me out, please let me know as soon as possible so we can set up a convenient, brief, time to talk with you and a number where I can call you.
Thank you very much in advance.
