She is a Professor of Medicine at UCSF and the Associate Division Chief of HIV, Infectious Diseases, and Global Medicine at the Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital, overseeing significant research and clinical operations.

She plays a crucial role in public health education, mentoring early-career researchers, and addressing the COVID-19 pandemic through her writing and public outreach.
