Biography
I am a research psychologist and health services researcher. My work is focused on evaluating and implementing accessible, patient-facing technologies to promote self-management behaviors, such as physical activity, in patients with chronic disease. I am specifically interested in understanding how to leverage technology to expand access to pulmonary rehabilitation for patients with COPD who cannot attend conventional, in-person programs. My PhD is in social developmental psychology, where my research was focused on understanding mechanisms between psychosocial determinants (e.g., self-efficacy) and healthy behaviors (e.g., physical activity), and how these relationships vary across the lifespan. I completed a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship in Health Services Research at the Center for Healthcare Organization and Implementation Research (CHOIR) at the Edith Nourse Rogers Memorial Veterans Hospital, where I am currently an investigator.
