She holds a Master of Public Health in Community Health Education from San Francisco State University, where her graduate work explored how public health data systems obscure LGBTQ populations by reinforcing structural invisibility and therefore limiting equity-focused interventions. Mo speaks and consults on health promotion program design and evaluation, leveraging mixed methods to tell stories through data, and the politics and possibilities of public health data.
