After 4 grueling years, I’m proud to finally be able to add “PhD” after my name! I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have such strong support and mentorship throughout my time here in San Diego. I have so many people to thank for that.
I’ll finish out the year here at UC San Diego to wrap up some projects before I begin my postdoc at NCI in January working under the legendary Chuck Matthews. Can’t wait for what’s next!

Results suggest that promoting regular PA and minimal sedentary time in older women may be prudent for primary prevention of heart failure and its subtype with preserved ejection fraction for which treatment is limited. https://t.co/qPPHUZHvA8
My latest collaboration with the @CDC_DNPAO folks! Using 21 years of NHIS data, we examined prevalence and trends of meeting PAGs among US older adults ages 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, and 80+ years 🏃🏋️🧓👵

🚨New findings from the OPACH team! Higher accelerometer-measured PA (MVPA, light PA, steps per day) and lower sedentary time were associated with lower risk of overall heart failure and HFpEF specifically.

Always enjoy hearing @Ekkekakis talk about exercise and affect. Affect is still not rigorously addressed enough in current PA interventions - we must do better if we want our work to be effective #ACSM23
It was such a pleasure to listen to my former mentor and legend in the field, Janet Fulton, deliver the keynote address today on steps and health at #ACSM23. I’m walking away so inspired to keep doing this work!
