Research
I am a health services researcher whose research focuses on healthcare access and use in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. My interests are in examining health outcomes in children with type 1 diabetes, particularly examining the transition from pediatric to adult diabetes care. The results of my studies aim to identify the healthcare needs of children and youth with diabetes and ultimately help to inform how best to deliver diabetes care, including transition care for emerging adults.
