My Research Highlights

See my Google Scholar page for all publications.

My research covers a range of topics includes mHealth/eHealth, maternal and newborn outcomes, and global health. I developed the Essential Coaching for Every Mother postpartum text message program to improve maternal outcomes in the immediate postpartum period. For my postdoctoral fellowship, I am expanding this intervention to fathers and partners to develop Essential Coaching for Every Partner.
