Lab Contributions
As the Research Project Manager for the RECONNECT and PAN-PACT studies, I coordinate multiple complex, multi-component research projects aimed at improving cancer care through equitable, patient-centered interventions and systems-level implementation. I lead each study from inception through dissemination, including protocol development, workflow operationalization, participant recruitment, data collection, and qualitative and mixed-methods analysis. I bring expertise in research management, regulatory compliance, and qualitative methodology to ensure that projects are guided by best practices in research ethics and design. Through this work, I support the lab’s mission to advance health communication, reduce health disparities, and integrate evidence-based interventions into real-world healthcare settings.
