Hi! My name is Lauren Lavin and I am PhD student in the Department of Health management and Policy in the College of Public Health. I completed my undergrad degree (B.S. in psychology) from the University of South Dakota. I currently serve as the Events Director for the College of Public Health Graduate Student Association so I get plan fun events to keep grad students involved and connected. I also serve on the grants committee for GPSG as well as the Mental Health committee. My current area of research is in telehealth access and policy for rural and underserved individuals. In my free time, I love to bake, do yoga, catch up on the bachelor, or be outside! Happy to be serving GPSG!
