Chelsea Andrews is a passionate, driven, forward-thinking Michigander. As a pre-medical Spartan, she studied to become a surgical physician with a focus on pediatric oncology and trauma. Along the way, she discovered her fiery passion for bioethics, heath equity, and health systems management.

​This new path brought Chelsea and her husband to Colorado so she could complete her Master of Public Health in Health Systems, Management & Policy alongside a certificate in Maternal and Child Health through the Colorado School of Public Health (anticipated graduation: May 2019). Her MPH Practicum entailed cleaning birth certificate data for Maternal Fetal Medicine researchers. Her MPH Capstone aims to use qualitative assessment of anti-human trafficking protocols and expert interviews in the development of University of Colorado Health’s own anti-human trafficking protocol toolkit. Following graduation, Chelsea hopes to improve maternal and child health systems delivery in her home state and beyond.
