My current research with Alpha JC encompasses two areas: social-environmental interactions and health policy.

My environmental work assesses environmental factors and connects them with social, economic, or governmental processes or responses. These assessments use geography information systems, also known as GIS, to analyze environmental and social factors. This research is a continuation of my past work at the University of Miami. My past work included analyzing how mangrove restoration could increase hurricane shelter availability and suitable locations for new mechanical mosquito traps in Miami-Dade County.

My health policy work focuses on creating reforms in the health care system using combined public-private ventures to provide more efficient and cost-effective basic care programs to individuals who can not afford health insurance and who normally resort to hospitals for providing basic care.
