I take a systems approach to understanding problems relevant to engineering/education and how systems-level contexts shape individual experiences in/with engineering/education. I use quantitative and qualitative methodologies in my work and value using multiple methods to explore my research interests. I also consider myself to be an applied researcher, and explore research questions that lead to action and implementation.
