Research

Research Focus

My discovery centers well-being and education, is tied directly to my engagement, and is embedded within my teaching and learning. I have authored and contributed to 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (with 11 more manuscripts in press), 4 book chapters, and am the managing editor for an international journal on community well-being published by Springer. I and students in my service-learning courses and in my research group have presented at and or contributed to 17 national and international conferences. I was the principal or co-investigator for 13 grants totaling $85,665.00.
