Erin Law has had three years' experience in Bangladesh implementing and evaluating a health program specifically for women and children. She is interested in enabling women to develop strategies regarding their own reproductive health, and her goals are to train as a midwife and continue working on health in developing countries. This will complete her third degree, giving a broad range for public health overseas.
