Economics B.A. from UNC

Job: Healthcare Analyst Associate in Health Economics Department at Blue Cross and Blue Shield

My degree in Economics from the University of Northern Colorado fully prepared me to get my Master of Public Policy degree at one of the top policy schools in the nation—The Humphrey School of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota. While at the Humphrey, I was published with Katherine Fennelly on an article that examined immigrant rights in Minnesota, and my capstone project was covered by the Twin Cities Star Tribune and utilized by people in 11 different countries and presented to Ambassador Yamamoto. Currently, I am a Healthcare Analyst Associate in the Health Economics Department at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota and work with SAS, Oracle, and other data tools to provide support and research within the Health Economics Department, as well as to other departments within the company.
