Hi! I’m Monica.

I’m a fat liberation activist with a public health degree — and no, that’s not a contradiction! I help clinicians and researchers understand the flaws of weight-centric health systems and imagine fat-positive healthcare and health policy.

Here are some things I love doing:

  • speaking to groups, especially health professions students and early career professionals, about anti-fatness in health care and health policy

  • providing 1:1 support to clinicians, public health practitioners, researchers, and students to expand their understanding of anti-fatness

  • consulting with researchers to design studies that explore and expose anti-fatness without reinforcing it

  • conducting qualitative research interviews with fat participants

  • writing for blogs and working with journalists who want to cover anti-fatness in healthcare and public health, specifically

I work on a sliding scale. Let’s collaborate to define a scope of work and hourly rate or project fee that works for both of us.
