Biography

I joined the WRG in 2019 to work on e-cigarette research and started an independent project studying how Reddit users discuss e-cigarette cessation which is being prepared for journal submission as of December 2022. Since joining the team I have advanced my qualitative research skills and critical thinking abilities. I credit a lot of my academic and personal growth to working on Dr. Watkins' team.
