BIOGRAPHY
I am an assistant professor of Adult Health Nursing. My research has focused on aging with disabilities. Specifically, I am interested in the intersection between age related change and functional impairment and how that affects social role performance and subsequent health outcomes in women. My research has been conducted using primarily qualitative research methods, which means I mainly use in-person interview methods to collect data on how women perceive their aging experiences. My teaching interests include women’s health, qualitative research, disability over the life course, and health within illness.
