My primary research interest relates to the healthy psychosocial development of children, youth, and<br>emerging adults through sport, with a secondary interest in physical activity promotion. I conduct research and support projects at various stages from grant writing, research project conceptualization, and participant recruitment to qualitative data-collection, data-analysis, knowledge mobilization and communication. My Master\u2019s thesis explored coaches\u2019 life skill<br>development, as emerging adults within a Sport for Development facility. The aim of my doctoral research is to advance understanding of youth\u2019s experiences within one community-based high performance sport education program in central Canada, with a focus on exploring processes and outcomes of PYD. Community engagement has been an integral part of my education. As a LaMarsh Graduate Student Leader, I hope to effectively apply my learning into practice, identify diversity gaps and biases, enhance my leadership skills, participate and coordinate LaMarsh research initiatives, and advocate positive change among children and youth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deadline: June 1, 2026 The LaMarsh Centre Graduate Student Leadership Award is designed to provide opportunities for graduate students to receive mentorship from LaMarsh faculty and play a leadership role in promoting initiatives that enhance student engagement in research at LaMarsh.
