Summary
My research interests include the role of nutrition in the prevention of poor maternal-fetal outcomes and in the prevention of obesity risk factors during early childhood utilizing a positive deviance framework; all of my work is completed with a focus on the social determinants of health and nutrition and targets marginalized, under-served and/or rural MCH populations. I am also very involved in Public Health Nutrition and MCH workforce development.
