Hello! My name is Emma Kunkel, and I live in Dallas, Texas and I'm a public health intern. I am currently working on my Master of Public Health with a concentration in Public Health Leadership at the University of North Texas Health Science Center, where I plan to graduate in December 2024.

I got my bachelor's degree in public health from the University of Arkansas in May of 2022, where I found my passion for improving the lives of others through innovative public health practices. I am very interested in researching and implementing programs to improve the health of people who struggle with different health disparities.

My ultimate goal is to improve the healthcare delivery system and improve access to healthcare for vulnerable populations experiencing health disparities.

I love animals, hiking, working out, staying active, and building relationships with new people. I am very excited about my future career and am looking forward to learning more at Assuaged Foundation!
