Biography

I am a pediatric nurse with 20 years of experience. My research focuses on cognitive-behavioral self-control skills (resourcefulness), stress, overeating, and physical activity in children. Recent projects include examining the relationships among resourcefulness, stress, overeating, and physical activity in minority and underserved children.
