As the driving force behind One Life Epi Solutions, she's spent over 10 years in healthcare and public health transforming complex health challenges into actionable strategies rooted in equity, data-driven insights, and the interconnected principles of One Health.
Academic Foundation, Field-Tested Expertise
With a Doctorate in Public Health specializing in Population Health Decision-Making and a Master of Science in Epidemiology, Dr. Dixon’s expertise is grounded in both rigorous analysis and human-centered problem-solving.

Built in the Trenches of Public Health
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Dixon led frontline case investigations while designing communication systems to streamline outbreak response, later developing processes for using NACCHO frameworks for citizen-science integrated surveillance system planning. This hands-on experience fuels their commitment to creating epidemiology systems that work – whether developing syndromic surveillance dashboards in Tableau, advising teams on how to develop easy-to-understand, Peabody-formatted protocols, or implementing CQI processes that turn data into prevention and challenges into growth.
A Voice for Integrated Solutions
A sought-after speaker on topics ranging from avian influenza dynamics to equity-centered health metrics, Dr. Dixon champions a strength-based approach to public health. Her work has advances methods for embedding One Health principles into everything from K-12 education programs to cross-sector zoonotic disease response plans. Dr. Dixon and guest host Dr. Julia Zammit champion innovations and professionals in One Health through the One Health Wednesdays podcast.
Why One Health? "Because Walls Solve Nothing."
Health isn’t confined to clinics or charts – it lives in classrooms, farmlands, ecosystems, and the trust we build with communities. Every policy we craft, every dashboard we design, and every lesson we teach through One Health Kids starts with one truth: human resilience is inextricably tied to the wellbeing of animals and our planet.
