Personal profile
Research Interests
I am a developmental methodologist with expertise in early childhood education and survey development, particularly child- and parent-reported health outcomes measures. My research focuses on early learning and positive health development, and the complex social environmental factors that contribute to such outcomes. Fundamental to my work is an emphasis on conducting research that informs health and education policy and practice. I am currently an integral member of the Person Reported Outcome (PRO) Core for the NIH-funded Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) research program.
