Brook Haight, MSc Student

Brook (she, her, hers) is a M.Sc. student in the School of Kinesiology under the supervision of Dr. Eli Puterman. She completed her B.A. (Honours) in Psychology at Brock University, and was awarded a CIHR CGS M award to support her master’s research at UBC. Her research interests include the development of exercise interventions for physical and mental health, psychosocial determinants of health behaviour, exercise oncology, and the integration of behaviour change interventions into the health care system. For her master’s thesis, Brook will be involved in a randomized control trial examining the effect of a mHealth exercise intervention on the mental well-being and workplace engagement of British Columbian nurses during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. In her spare time Brook likes to spend time with family, walk/hike Vancouver, and travel.
