Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
After completing post-doctoral pharmacy training in transplantation and immunology at the Univ.
of Maryland, I started my career as a pharmacist at UNC Healthcare as a transplant pharmacist
for five years. I continue to be passionate about improving people s lives through transplant.
However, I watched the disparity of organ supply and demand grow further apart as diseases
such as diabetes, hypertension and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis continue to rise.
I decided to change my career path from helping patients recover from end-stage organ disease
to prevention. I remain active as a pharmacist and starting working with population health
management in 12/2015. 1 am continuing to learn about barriers to care, success and failures of
the current medical model in the United States. I enjoy working with multi-cultural and multi-
disciplinary groups and hope to give back and learn from a position on Orange Cc Board of
Public Health.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
- Help the community and members with up to date and useful drug information
- Learn about issues affecting my community as a whole

Boards/Commissions applied for:
Board of Health
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
As a medical provider, of course I am invested in the health of my patients and community. But
my experiences outside of direct medical care are equally relevant. From working at the United
Nations in Bangkok studying HIV transmission in Southeast Asia, to teaching preventive health
to incarcerated juveniles in Richmond, Virginia, to volunteering to provide care to people
experiencing homelessness in Pittsburgh, Manhattan, and San Diego, I have a diverse
background in both caring directly for our most vulnerable fellow Americans and advocating for
them on a larger level. I completed a Masters in Public Health at Johns Hopkins, and this
combined with my training and practice in Baltimore starkly revealed how great the needs are
right here in America, in my neighborhoods. I believe that my clinical experience and my public
health work provide me a solid background to be a very useful member of the Orange County
Board of Health.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
Healthcare disparities and lack of access are among this country s greatest moral shortcomings,
and through research and action we can actually rectify this. Here in Orange County, as in many
parts of the country, some of us enjoy excellent healthcare access and outcomes while others
struggle to have basic needs met. Orange County is a special place in which many people
18
Page 2 of 2 Aparna Jonnal
believe in equity and justice, so translating these ideals into actual improvements for all of our
residents seems important and quite possible. This is a divisive time in America and healthcare
is a great unifier. Every person, regardless of identity or beliefs, should have access to quality
healthcare, particularly preventive care which is not only humane but most efficient. I simply
cannot imagine not working toward healthcare equity and justice.

A great deal of my engagement with the community has been through my work with the
UNC Public Policy Capstone Course, and includes work with the Orange County Board of
Health, Piedmont Health Services, Dementia Inclusive Durham. I am active with my
daughter s school (Carrboro High School) and am a member of a local political activism
group.
Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards:
I have not served on any such boards.
Boards/Commissions applied for:
Board of Health
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I have a law degree with a concentration in health law, and a MSPH in health policy and
management. I was also a board member(including three years as president)of a community
health center in Gaston County, NC, before I moved to Chapel Hill. I am currently on the faculty
of the Gillings School of Global Public Health at UNC, where I teach courses in the US health
system and health policy. I have a long-standing commitment to improving the health of
underserved communities, including communities of color, immigrants and the LGBT
community. I have worked with student teams who have completed projects for the OCBoH,
Piedmont Health, and other community organizations, which has given me great insight into the
health needs of the county and the active role of the OCBoH in promoting health in our
community. As someone who has a background in both law and public health, and who has
worked in management, programs and policy, I think that I have a unique skill set that would add
to the already strong board.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
20
Page 2 of 2 Aimee McHale
I have long wanted to become more involved with community organizations, but have had an
extremely heavy teaching load which, combined with my responsibilities as the mother of a
teenager, have made it difficult for me to commit additional time. In my new role as a faculty
member in the Public Health Leadership Program at UNC, one of my responsibilities is to
maintain a connection to the public health community, so when I learned of an upcoming
vacancy on the BoH, it seemed like a natural fit. When I have attended BoH meetings in the
past, I have been favorably impressed with the board dynamics. As well, with the change in the
national administration and ongoing issues within the NC legislature, I believe that my particular
skills and experience- in law and public health, programs, policy and advocacy-would be useful
as the Board continues to work to secure and improve the health of Orange County residents.

Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
Mental health is changing, and many have access only through state and county services. The
quality of a community s mental health infrastructure can affect the economic stability of its
citizens and the services that support them. Inadequate access can put a strain on emergency,
law enforcement, and judicial resources.
