Thao Lam, MPH, is an Arizona native and graduate from Emory University’s Master of Public Health in the Environmental Health program.
Her time at Emory in both undergraduate and graduate studies allowed her to foster her love for combating community health, gender, and racial disparities and inequities. A year-long internship with the Southeast Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Units (PEHSU) and the Center for Black Women’s Wellness (CBWW) fueled her passion for environmental health advocacy in maternal and child health. Through this internship, she met Dr. Broomfield-Massey and joined Urban Metrics Consultants after graduating.
In her free time, Thao loves cooking with her family, playing the piano and violin, devouring books, watching crime shows, learning multiple languages, and experimenting with wine!
