Expertise

My primary research focuses on student engagement particularly as it relates to the use of technology and the use of simulations in an active learning environment.

My secondary research area is the interaction between golf and cognitive decline.

My interest is in golf-based intervention in delaying cognitive decline in healthy older adults.
