As an Assistant Professor and Director of Geriatric Education at the University of North Dakota, the focus of my research is concentrated on the social determinants of health, specifically self-efficacy, connectedness, and resiliency of older adults. I developed a curriculum focused on intergenerational programs that include growth mindset, reminiscence therapy, mindfulness, guided imagery, and S.M.A.R.T. goal-setting practices to nourish internal qualities and self-agency of older adults. These best practices for wellness & health promotion address needs related to loneliness and social isolation. I am also an advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion, especially regarding Social Determinants of Health for all peoples.
