While in graduate school, she interned with World Vision in India working to evaluate a community-based program that served women affected by HIV/AIDS. This experience, along with her time spent in Tanzania, Kenya, and Zambia in service learning, sparked her passion to work to improve health for women on the margins of society. Sharon received her Master of Public Health in behavioral and community health at the University of Pittsburgh and studied biology and cross-cultural studies as an undergraduate at Messiah College.
