My research sits at the intersection of health communication, information communication technologies (ICT or “technologies”) and the promotion of healthy behaviors. The larger question that my research seeks to answer is, “<em><strong>How can we engage stakeholders to use technology to improve health outcomes?”</strong></em>

Because health is so complex, I use a mixed methods approach in my research. I have found that using this approach has really helped in understanding the oddities and disjointed nature in health care.
