Summary

My current goal is to continue my education and earn my PhD in communication. I have began research in health and risk communication. One current research project that I have teamed up to work on is examining HPV vaccine perception and adherence by college aged individuals. Another new project that I have just teamed up on is examining patient/provider communication obstacles regarding the prescribing of pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP). This is something I am extremely passionate about and would like to continue learning in this program.
