In the summer of 2011, Danielle participated in USF's Globalization and Community Health Field School in Monteverde, Costa Rica.  During her time in country, Danielle learned basic anthropology and public health research techniques and she worked in a group studying adolescent alcohol and tobacco use.  The study incorporated data gathered from focus groups, surveys and interviews from over 70 participants (given in Spanish and English).  At the end of the course, presentations were given to the community in both English and Spanish.
