Biography

My research focuses on college women's sexual health, and how their perceptions of feminism influence their sexual health service- and information-seeking behaviors. Additionally, I've done studies on health equity, sexual violence, the #MeToo movement, and feminist pedagogy. My passion is in teaching at the university level, and I have experience teaching courses ranging from Personal Health, to Community & Public Health, Understanding Stress Management, and Foundations of Health Education & Promotion.
