Overview
I have over thirty years of experience in health services, community health, and health policy research and evaluation. My work has focused on improving the health of low-income and otherwise underserved populations through primary care practice change, community-based programs/organizations, and addressing social drivers of health. My studies generally use mixed-methods participatory program evaluation and community-engaged research approaches. I also study, write about, and teach community engaged/participatory research and evaluation. I have a great deal of experience with mentoring trainees on research, including undergraduate students, graduate students, medical students, residents, junior faculty, and senior faculty moving into new areas of work.
