Hi, I’m Elham. I’m a strategic health equity writer and researcher with a decade of experience in research, health literacy and communication, human-centered design, and project management.
I write health, medical, and scientific content that educates communities, improves trust, inspires healthy behavior, promotes collective action, and changes social norms.
