EP86 Emergency Management on the Frontlines in NYC with Johanna Miele

In this episode, we are joined by Johanna Miele, an NYU GPH alumna (MPH '14) and inaugural GPH Alumni Board member. Johanna is a Manager of the Emergency Management and Enterprise Resilience team at NYU Langone Health, working closely with infectious disease response, mass fatality operations and multi-casualty incident readiness across the NYU Langone Health enterprise. Prior to her role at NYU Langone Health, she worked at NYC Emergency Management coordinating with city, state, and federal health officials in their planning and response activities. While pursuing her MPH at NYU, Johanna tailored the program to fit her interest in emergency management, which first piqued her interest during her undergraduate years. In this episode, we discuss her personal journey to working in public health, and Johanna shares insight into the domain of emergency management and her experience working on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City.
