Anya Morozov

Anya did her undergraduate degree in Lincoln, Neb., before coming to Iowa City for her MPH in epidemiology. Her favorite part of the podcast is the opportunity to make public health topics more accessible. She hopes to someday use data to improve public health and advance health equity in practice, using the skills she’s gaining from her coursework. Outside of class, she works to strengthen academic-public health partnerships as a graduate assistant, and she is an intern with the Iowa Public Health Association.

Eric Ramos

Eric is from Storm Lake and is working on his Master of Health Administration degree, set to graduate in May 2023. His favorite part about being on the podcast is being able to work on slowing down his speech and working on being more articulate; he talks very fast so this is great practice. Eric is passionate about health equity, positive workplace cultures, and price transparency in healthcare. His dream job would be to spend time working to reshape health systems’ cultures to improve patient and employee satisfaction.

Logan Schmidt

She earned her BS in biomedical sciences with a certificate in clinical and translational science from the University of Iowa and decided to continue her education in public health.
