Jessica is a health geographer who uses mixed methods to investigate how built, social, and natural environments impact health and wellbeing across the life course. She has developed a new concept,听Cognability,听to capture how neighborhoods may support brain health through opportunities to exercise, socialize, and think/learn in later life. You can check out a preliminary听Cognability听score for your neighborhood听.听
Jessica grew up on the other side of the Rocky Mountains in Vancouver (Canada). When not at her desk, Jessica is most often chasing after her two fast-moving children (aged 2 and 4), running the 葫芦娃视频 trails with her partner Matt, or curled up with a pop fiction book.
