Research Interests

My research interest centers on Successful Aging. Primarily, I am interested in the everyday physical and cognitive functioning of older adults. Through my research, I strive to explore how Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) influence cognitive aging and functional abilities in older adults. By examining these relationships, I aim to develop interventions and strategies that promote healthy aging and enhance the quality of life for older individuals.
