I am pleased to continue to collaborate with LaMarsh Faculty member Dr. Jessica Fraser-Thomas, following the completion of my PhD and Postdoc under her supervision from 2015-2021. My research program predominantly centers on positive youth development through sport. Specifically, I investigate organized sports and physical activity among children in early childhood, exploring the experiences, outcomes, and trajectories of participation. My research also delves into the supportive roles of parents, coaches, and early childhood educators in optimizing the delivery of preschooler sport programs, drawing upon principles of program quality and evaluation.
