Teaching Interests: I primarily teach elective courses in the area of clinical and counseling psychology. I also enjoy teaching and developing courses in clinical health psychology that provide experiential learning opportunities for students. Courses regularly taught: Abnormal Psychology, Clinical Health Psychology, Orientation to Clinical Professions in Psychology, Applying Research Methods in Psychology
Research Interests: My research broadly focuses on health promotion and disease prevention. I have primarily focused on sexual risk reduction among adolescents and young adults. My work in that area has spanned HPV vaccine acceptance and uptake, parent-child sex communication, and most recently, a mixed methods investigation of emerging adult communication about sex-related topics as associated with sexual health outcomes. My current area of investigation explores socio-emotional correlates of COVID-19 exposure.
