A few years ago, the Department of Population, Family, and Reproductive Health at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health asked me to give an "Amazing Alumni" lecture, as part of their 100th anniversary celebrations. I was beyond honored to be one of six alumni chosen to give a talk! I was asked to reflect on my career trajectory. Since most talks I do focus on research findings - it was a challenge (an intimidating one!) to put together a talk that was more personal. It was even more intimidating to deliver it to a room full of the people who taught me much of what I know about global public health!
I've worked on some controversial issues in sexual and reproductive health, so decided to make 'controversy' the theme. In retrospect, I'm annoyed I didn't sneak this Prince song in to the talk, but...live and learn.
It was a fun opportunity to reflect on some lessons learned so far in my career. The audio recording of my talk is posted here (a few minutes seem to be skipped near the end), and slides can be downloaded below.
