Bio
Lisa N. Burnam
Melissa is brilliant. A very strong writer and researcher, her analyses across various topics including the intersections of mental health, women, and the impact of incarceration on both has always motivated me to delve deeper into these issues. As her colleague, I've not only the benefit of simply working with her (she's quite positive) but also gaining unique insight into system practices that I'd be hard-pressed to find elsewhere.

I had the distinct pleasure of meeting and working with Melissa earlier this year while consulting at Paltech. As someone also dedicated to improving public health, I learned a lot from her. She is passionate, dedicated, self-motivated, methodical, a team player and personable. Melissa has the ability to explain and apply research to practice - invaluable in the public health arena. She is definitely someone I'd want to have on my team.
