Who I am!
Howdy! My name is Gerardo Rodríguez, and my dream is to transform how we all think about health. Yes, health is about healthy eating, physical activity, vaccines, health insurance, but it's a lot more than that. Health is an integral part of our lives; it is embedded in our culture! You can't change something as fundamental as health without looking at the larger context of our societies.
My background is in public health and medicine, so I seamlessly work throughout the whole spectrum of health, from an individual person to an entire population. These unique experiences lets me approach health in a very transformative manner. I see the big picture of health and use that unique perspective to craft innovative and transformative ideas.
Education, employment, communities, behaviors, racism, and intersectionality are just a few of the social aspects impacting our health. If you find yourself struggling to connect these social determinants with your health interventions, message me! Together, we can bring true health transformation to everyone!
