Hello,
a bit about me:
My name is Ardandia and I am a Public Health Analyst with the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) of Health Resources and Services Administration’s (HRSA). Within my role, I serve as a Healthy Start Project Officer for MCHB’s Division of Healthy Start and Perinatal Services (DHSPS).
I support the Division’s efforts with addressing the needs of maternal and child health (MCH) populations while providing programmatic direction, oversight and technical assistance for assigned Healthy Start grantees in various U.S. regions.
I am an experienced community health promotion professional and health equity advocate with 10+ years of hands-on experience in technical writing and community outreach. I have strong skills in data collection and analysis, project development, and strategic planning.
I graduated in 2016 with a Master of Public Health from Morgan State University’s School of Community Health and Policy, where I was a recognized member of the Golden Key International Honor Society and the International Dean’s List Society.
In my free time I enjoy running in 5K/10K races, volunteering in charities, creative writing/journaling, and pursuing my passion for community health education and empowerment.
