LOVE, LABOR, LOSS has screened nationally to thousands of college students, community groups and concerned individuals. The filmmaker - who holds a Masters of Public Health in International Health - uses her film to initiate dialogue with her audiences about broader issues of global development, U.S. legislation hampering funding for international women's health programs and her career path of blending her graduate studies with documentary filmmaking and activism.
