Speakers
Christine Lee, MPH, BSN, RN, PHN, CPH, CHES
Working abroad in an orphanage left an indelible mark: Christine Lee found her calling supporting maternal and child populations. Christine’s work began over a decade ago developing program curricula for both nonprofits and NGOs. Throughout her tenure, she has cultivated skills in developing clinical process improvement projects that better the lives of families and communities. This deep desire and commitment to build equity through a blended framework of nursing research, public health practice, and policy development led Christine into her current role as a regional maternal-child health practice specialist. Working for a large integrated healthcare system, she focuses on translating evidence into nursing practice and quality outcomes. Additionally, she continues to practice at the bedside as a cross-trained perinatal nurse.
Christine holds a Bachelor’ of Science in Nursing and a Master's in Public Health from Loma Linda University with a dual concentration in Health Promotion and Education and Maternal Child Health with an emphasis on Reproductive Health. She is currently a PhD candidate at Azusa Pacific University and a Randell Lewis Health & Policy Fellow. Christine aspires to be a reproductive health equity researcher applying tools of population health science to accelerate progress and positive change through the integration of nursing practice within the health policy sphere to ensure equitable representation of the maternal-child health population.
