Molly is a public health researcher and practitioner in the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Since 2014, her work at JH/BSPH has focused on designing, implementing, and evaluating infectious disease prevention and control efforts in complex and lower-resourced settings, particularly for vaccine delivery and demand, surveillance, and health system strengthening. She previously worked with the U.S. CDC and Washington State Department of Health and holds dual BAs (History, Public Communication) from American University and a PhD (International Health) and MPH (Infectious Diseases, Applied Epidemiology) from Johns Hopkins. Eager to ground her public health work in its historical roots and critically examine international health and development, and building on training in the history of medicine at American University and the University of Cape Town, she joined the MA program as a joint degree while completing her PhD in the Department of International Health across the street. Her MA thesis research focuses on the social and structural factors that shaped the lived experience of individuals with leprosy (Hansen’s disease) in late 19th century India, a turning point for isolation-centered interventions.
