My\u00a0research is interdisciplinary and spans the areas of participatory visual methodologies, HIV and AIDS, gender-based violence, youth homelessness and inclusive education. I am driven to conduct research that meaningfully engages marginalized populations to address barriers to education and healthcare as well as to promote thriving. I have explored these topics with diverse communities internationally, including in India, South Africa, Mozambique, Sierra Leone, and Canada. I have been highly involved in the development of cellphilm method and have recently published my second book on the topic, titled:\u00a0Cellphilm as a Participatory Visual Method: Mobilizing opportunities for research, teaching and social change<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
