Associate Professor

Biobehavioral Nursing & Health Informatics

Profile
My program of research has focused on the development of knowledge related to symptom management, specifically sleep disturbance, fatigue, depression, and impaired cognition, as well as underlying mechanisms evoking these symptoms in persons with stroke, including subarachnoid hemorrhage. I have also identified symptom experiences of family caregivers of persons with stroke, and begun to develop interventions to foster symptom self-management by stroke survivors. My work has been funded by the National Institutes of Health/National Institute of Nursing Research (K23NR017404), John A. Hartford Foundation, and Neuroscience Nursing Foundation. I have a clinical background in neuro critical care. My research and clinical experiences to date have fueled my desire to contribute to the improvement of health and quality of life in persons with stroke as well as their family members.
