Biography

My research focus is on prevention of chronic diseases in low-income families through lifestyle interventions This has led me to study how different types of interventions, such as community-based programs and public policy, affect the diet and food choices of target populations. My recent work has focused on food-insecure households, including their health disparities and using community-based solutions to help support healthy diets.
