Associate Professor, School of Social Work
My research is critically focused in the domains of domestic violence and healthcare to understand and develop alternatives to current practices. The typical mainstream responses are mostly focused on secondary and tertiary intervention on an individual level (e.g. shelter, protective orders, healthcare screening, etc.). My interest is in multi-system universal and selective primary prevention and shifting the focus of response from individual-levels to system-levels. This means examining the interactions and influences of systems and challenging the focus of individual intervention as a response to complex social problems.
