Bio
Trina Salm Ward, PhD, MSW
As her professor and advisor, I have been impressed with Elaina's efforts to make the best of her graduate education. Despite the challenging course load of the dual MSW MPH program Elaina maintained a 3.80 GPA while also pursuing a Global Health graduate certificate and maintaining a Graduate Assistantship. Through her coursework, Elaina gained perspective on critical issues affecting our community through the social work lens of intervention at the individual and family level and the public health lens of prevention at the population level. The literature on MSW/MPH graduates in the US suggests that their unique training tends to lead them to interdisciplinary settings where they often provide both direct and collaborative leadership and education. Elaina has a strong work ethic and ability to
