Collaboration Interests:
I am open to collaboration especially in grant writing and doing research. I am open to working together with anyone across the US and internationally. I bring years of research and clinical practice in geriatrics. I am looking to collaborate with music therapists, students in this area, other researchers and experts in music cognition.
