Curriculum Vitae

Research & Professional Interests

I began my career as a special education teacher for children with severe and multiple disabilities in kindergarten through 3rd grade. Like many new teachers, I often struggled to use all the knowledge I had about teaching in the classroom. The formal and informal coaching I received from people around me made a difference in the work I did every day. As a researcher, I am committed to understanding the professional development experiences that make a difference in the lives of teachers and children.  My work has focused on developing effective and efficient professional development systems for early childhood professionals. I am particularly interested in the many ways teachers receive performance feedback on their teaching. For example, I have used simple technology such as email to expand access to professional development opportunities when on-site coaches are not available. I am continuing to explore whether and how characteristics of feedback such as dosage, quality, and delivery format influence teachers’ use of evidence-based practices. To date, the content focus of my coaching work has revolved around teachers’ use of social-emotional teaching strategies and positive behavior support.

I enjoy developing products that make research accessible to a wide audience and have done this work through the Department of Defense Child Development Virtual Lab School (https://www.virtuallabschool.org/) at The Ohio State University and as a member of the Head Start National Center on Quality Teaching and Learning at the University of Washington.
