Research Interests
My research interests focus on adult development and aging. More specifically, I am interested in
- the impact of dementia diagnosis on caregiver identity and family system infrastructure that may lead to caregiver burnout;
- the management of chronic disease with inadequate levels of support;
- differences in access and utilization of healthcare and community services in African American families; and
- the role of advanced planning in disease management and reducing stress related to healthcare decisions.
