curriculum vitae

Welcome!

​Thanks for visiting my website. I am an Associate Professor at California State University, Chico. My work is centered on the promotion of physical activity among young people. Particularly, I am interested in contributing to practices that decrease the social, cultural, and economical inequities related to physical activity opportunities for children and adolescents.

I teach undergraduate and graduate courses within the Department of Kinesiology at Chico State. These courses focus on curriculum and instruction in K-12 physical education and physical activity promotion. I am Public Health Certified and have a Ph.D. in Coaching and Teaching Studies from West Virginia University.

My scholarship interest revolves around inclusive approaches to physical activity. I believe every person should have equal opportunities to discover their moving bodies and find their "playgrounds", meaning the spaces in which they can move with confidence and enjoyment.  

​This website contains sample of my work and resources related to physical activity promotion for young people. I hope you enjoy it!
