About
I am a physical activity epidemiologist and kinesiologist with a focus on advancing the measurement of physical activity. I have expertise in applying physical activity and fitness measurement in the setting of observational epidemiologic studies or as a tool for interventions. My research focuses on developing wearable sensor technologies targeting populations at high risk or at early stages of chronic disease.
My long-term goal is to reduce the burden of chronic diseases through technology-assisted physical activity interventions that can be disseminated through clinicians and/or population level efforts.
