Research Interests
My research interest is to design and/or test strategies to facilitate health-habit adoption and maintenance in the domains of diet, exercise/physical activity, stress management/resiliency, sleep, and medication adherence. My ultimate aspiration is to create a series of effective virtual (e.g., Zoom, email-based) programs that serve as the go-to resource for rural/underserved primary care physicians in the Southeast for referring patients who want to make lifestyle changes. The aim is to help close the intention–implementation gap by creating programs that help participants find success early in their behavior change journey, leading to more and lasting change.
Capabilities: Behavior Design, Certified Tiny Habits® Coach, health and wellness coaching, Qualtrics power user, research design, scientific writing, basic statistical analysis (SPSS), student research mentorship.
