musings at the intersection of public health research and holistic wellness.
ABOUT ME:
Hello, my name is Mariah!
I am a maternal health researcher, volunteer doula and registered vinyasa and prenatal yoga teacher with a passion for supporting women's health throughout the entire life course.
My interests sit at the intersection of public health research and holistic wellbeing, blending rigorous mixed-method research with a curious exploration of practices that allows us to take our wellbeing into our own hands.
While I've held many roles throughout my career- from researching eugenic sterilizations in the U.S. to conducting research to help open a community health center, to teaching popup prenatal yoga classes- one common thread throught these all is a commitment to ensuring we are able to be our healthiest selves.
Feel free to explore this page- where I talk about my work and current interests, as well as share findings that can help you be your best self!
