Water Experience

I hold a PhD in Public Health and have experience and interest in public health and oral health surveillance. My work includes researching fluoride monitoring in public water supplies, a critical tool for dental caries prevention. I have hands-on experience analyzing fluoride levels in public water systems, contributing to evidence-based policies that ensure optimal fluoride concentrations for community health. My research also emphasizes equity by promoting access to preventive oral health measures, particularly for underserved populations, fostering healthier communities through sustainable water management.
