| What is your current research focus? | My current research project is centered on kratom use in high school aged adolescents in Florida. This research was completed with the Florida Center for prevention Research, and focuses on educating people about the prevalence and impacts of kratom use. I intend to continue education and outreach, and eventually, I would like to branch out into other topics in social work. |
