"I chose Johns Hopkins because of the university's commitment to research.

During my graduate program I studied the twelve-hour state trooper shift - looking specifically at the affect sleep deprivation had on troopers' efficacy and safety. After compiling the research, the conclusion was so compelling that the research findings were shared, and statewide policy was modified from a 12 to eight-hour trooper shift."
