Hana is a PhD candidate in Population Health Sciences within Harvard Chan School’s Department of Epidemiology, with a focus on environmental epidemiology. She is currently a Harvard Chan C-CHANGE Student Ambassador and is working with Dr. Caleb Dresser on Harvard Chan C-CHANGE’s project for Climate Resilience for Frontline Clinics.

Her work includes supporting qualitative assessments of the project’s toolkit that helps clinics support their patients’ care through heatwaves, hurricanes, floods, and wildfires. She is also working on the project’s heatwave alerts to build evidence for climate change adaptation among health clinics.

Her research interests include understanding how social factors mediate the pathways between environmental exposures and disparities in health outcomes, and the application of spatial methodologies and translation/implementation sciences in environmental health.
