Summary
My research focuses on health economics and outcomes research using mixed methodologies. Research interests primarily involve understanding health behaviors among underserved, minority groups and the use of patient-reported outcomes to capture disease burden in patients with rare diseases, cancer, and other disease conditions. Additional research interests include psychometrics (instrument development and validation) and examining quality of life through theoretical frameworks and large-scale retrospective database analyses.
