Biography

I am a graduate researcher interested in new strategies for moving evidence into health policy and practice. I develop and evaluate approaches for sharing research findings with key groups including the public, healthcare providers, and policy makers. My focus is on advancing the health of women and gender diverse people, and I have investigated patient decision aids, education programs, and storytelling in this context. My research has been supported by the Canadian Institute of Health Research, the Women’s Health Research Institute, the BC SUPPORT Unit, the International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health, the UBC Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and the UBC Office of Community Engagement.
