About

I am a social work academician who have taught courses and guided student research in India and USA for a total of 28 years. I also conducted grant funded and self-funded research during my tenure as an academician in both countries. My research interests are evaluation of individual, group, and systemic care for children, youth, and perpetrators of domestic violence. I have published several articles in refereed journals, encyclopaedias, book chapters, and book reviews. My teaching interests are research methods at baccalaureate and Masters level; and qualitative research at doctoral level as well as serving on dissertation committee. I am currently retired but would like to reenter academia as part-time educator or consultant on grant-funded research study.
