Research Interests: My interdisciplinary research agenda centers on individual, family, contextual, and policy influences on economically disadvantaged children’s development and family’s health and well-being. Specifically, my work focuses on the influence of (1) antipoverty policies on children’s development and family well-being and (2) fathers and their role in family health and well-being.
