Biography

I am a doctoral student in the Disability Disciplines–Pathokinesiology PhD Program. I am a teaching assistant for KIN 4400 (Measurement and Evaluation in Kinesiology) and a research assistant working with Dr. Clevenger. My research interests include children’s physical activity and the health and movement of people with chronic and disabling health conditions. Prior to joining the pathokinesiology program, I received a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology and a master’s degree in communication studies with a focus on health communication. I enjoy spending time outdoors in the mountains or on the coast of Maine where I grew up.
