Research Overview
My research interests broadly focus on the perinatal period, reproductive health, and wellbeing. In particular, I am interested in the ways in which parental factors affect the child; health disparities among perinatal individuals; and childbirth outcomes. I am interested in utilizing biological, behavioral, and psychological factors within my research.
