Research and Clinical Interests:
My research and clinical interests are currently quite broad within pediatric psychology. Some of my interests include medication adherence, children and families’ adaptation to chronic illnesses and bereavement, the role of social support for chronically ill children, and the benefits of pediatric summer camps for chronically ill children and their siblings. I am very excited to serve on the Student Advisory Board and to contribute to the Board’s efforts to organize programs and networking opportunities for students in pediatric psychology.
