I have worked in the field of LGBTQ health for nearly 20 years, first as a sexuality educator and HIV counselor and then in program evaluation and community health research. My current projects examine: the relationship between gender expression and health behaviors among U.S. adolescents; the effects of the social and policy environment on substance use and health-related quality of life among sexual minorities; the links between body image, intimate relationships, and sexual health among transgender young adults; the impacts of weight stigma; and eating disorders prevention for transgender and gender diverse youth. white No Queer parent allegrag@bu.edu

My work within the committee focuses on defining cross-mentorship and assessing its impact on the mentor and mentee relationship in surgical training, specifically those of racial/ethnic and sexual minorities. Most recently, I have expanded my efforts into the Association of Surgical Education (ASE) where I also serve as a member of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Task Force and continue to advocate for a safe and supportive training environment for students, residents, and faculty of the LGBTQIA+ community.
