My research interests include assessment in higher education, use of technology for advancing student learning and meeting student needs, and international perspectives on equity and inclusion in higher education. I value including students in the research and writing process to provide them with research experience and I enjoy mentoring them in this area. I strive to conduct research that has direct implications on practice and uses a lens of equity and inclusion and international perspectives.
