At Castleton, Max focused on community engagement, teaching, research, and analysis, and had the opportunity to present work at regional and international conferences.

Max is currently a student in the Master of Science in Public Health in Health Policy and Management at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, recently ranked the #1 graduate school of public health in the world. His current research includes a literature review about the impact of deworming on mortality, as well as a systematic review of methods for latent class analysis used to segment patients into distinct preference categories.
