Camillo is an interdisciplinary (BA, Political Science, Yale; MPA, Maxwell School at Syracuse University; PhD, Public Policy, University of Maryland, Public Policy) scholar-practitioner with over 30 years experience developing and implementing policies to improve access to health insurance and health care services and, ultimately, population health.

She is actively promoting the exchange of ideas and lessons across national and subnational borders, including by convening state and provincial health systems leaders to discuss evidence-informed reforms to improve access to health and social services.
