As we look back on Commencement, we are excited to highlight a few more of our graduating students.

“Growing up in British Columbia, I watched wildfires turn skies orange, shaping my passion for environmental health. At YSPH, I built expertise in climate change, wildfires, and air pollution. Dr. Krystal Pollitt, associate professor of epidemiology (environmental health) and a fellow Canadian, has been an incredible mentor, guiding me in designing a thesis on wildfire smoke in my home community. I also led air quality projects with NASA DEVELOP, the Healthy Air Network, the Yale Center on Climate Change and Health, and the Yale Center for Geospatial Solutions. YSPH has equipped me with the tools to bridge science, policy, and community action to address environmental health challenges. 

After graduation, I will be starting a research associate position at the Milken Institute of Public Health at the George Washington University in Washington, D.C. In this role, I will be applying the skills I developed at YSPH including those in data and geospatial analyses, and leading research teams to conduct original community-engaged public health studies on air quality and food access.” - Aline Maybank, MPH ’25
