Research and Service:

As a member of the Committee on Home and School Health (HASH) for the Ohio Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, I investigated recess in schools in the United States. I was the lead author of an article which was published in the November, 2010 issue of Journal of School Health. See Research on Recess.

I am engaged with one elementary school. We received a $2000 Fuel Up To Play grant for the 2012-2013 school year. See my page on School Health.
