Personal profile
Research Interests
As an early-stage investigator, my scholarship focuses on furthering the science related to the avoidance of cigarettes and other tobacco products and reducing co-exposure to two environmental carcinogens, radon and secondhand smoke, as a means of cancer prevention. As an advanced practice registered nurse and oncology clinical nurse specialist, I bring a clinicians perspective to research and seek opportunities to collaborate with the public and healthcare providers to further lung cancer prevention efforts.
