One of the primary goals of this research practice is to support community-level agency in a movement toward sustainable changes in their food environment. She is interested in and has experience working with multiple disciplines such as (Urban) Geography, Family Studies, Community Sustainability, Social Justice and Sociology. She is also interested in exploring additional variables that influence food intake and indicators of health, such as sleep and stress.
