She studies one of the most common infections of women—urinary tract infections (UTI)--using infectious disease, social, and spatial epidemiology methods. Her other projects include studying disease burden in immigrant populations and social inequities associated with COVID-19 infections. She has a primary care practice at the Family Health Center, San Francisco General Hospital.
