I have completed my Masters of Arts in Applied Health Science, Community Health. My thesis was designed to promote father involvement among new fathers in Niagara - the DadRocks study. My role as Community Manager for Life With A Baby allows me to address my interest in maternal and paternal mental health. The program is designed to reduce new parents social isolation. I have a passion for knowledge translation and health promotion, I would like to work in research in public or community health. My background as Research Coordinator, where I organized research studies on human participants, will provide me with the background needed to do this work.MA - Applied Health Science - with a passion for knowledge translation and health promotion!
