For Patients:
I am interested in research to learn the best education techniques and communication styles with patients. I also do work with adolescent reproductive and sexual health (particularly focused in the area of men's health).

For Referring Providers:
My research interests are primarily in medical education with particular interest in medical student and resident learning, self-efficacy and communication with patients, as well as sexual behaviors of adolescents with particular focus on gynecology and contraception. I have an additional interest in transition medicine and preparing patients for adult models of patient care
