Her primary appointment is as a Health and Human Right Fellow at the FXB Center for Health and Human Rights and a secondary appointment as a Bell Fellow at the Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies.

This is reflective in her service as the current President of the Society of Analysis of African American Public Health Issues and growing base on public health Tik Tok.
