About

I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and French and a Master of Arts degree in Family Studies from the University of British Columbia (UBC). I then worked as a Researcher in Distance Education and Psychiatry as well as a sessional instructor in Family Studies at UBC. After several rewarding years in these positions, I decided to go back to graduate school to earn a PhD. I completed my degree in Human Development and Family Sciences from the University of Texas at Austin and once again returned to UBC to teach as a Sessional Instructor. As of 2019, I am an Associate Professor of Teaching, teaching approximately 450 students per year.

I very much enjoy the diversity my students bring to the learning environment. Often student comments and questions spark a research idea or have prompted me to find a new/better way of explaining a concept or theory. I am very happy to answer your questions, so please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Courses taught at UBC include:

Relationship Development, Parent-Child Relationships, Health and Family, Sociology of the Family, Social Interaction, Introduction to Statistics, Survey Research Methods, Sociology of Aging, Sociology of Mental Illness, and Theories of Family and Kinship.

Currently teaching:

Sociology of the Family, Relationship Development, Theories of Family and Kinship.
