Corrilisha Telford

Graduation year from MPH program: May 2021

My current job title is Regulatory Health Project Manager/Coordinator at the FDA Center for Tobacco Products (CTP). Basically at my job, I monitor companies that submit marketing authorization in the United States and I would be the first to look at the application. I follow the application throughout the “life span” (including scientific review) of the products until the company receives a positive order or negative order. I am also the main contact between the company and the FDA daily.

My MPH degree prepared me by being able to think critically throughout the day. Also, throughout the MPH program, I learned A LOT about policy and how the government works around health policies which I use daily in my work.
