Working with The Kinetix Group (TKG) on a Seton Hall University sponsored health communication journal is one of the most important projects I have been part of since joining the campus community last August. The opportunity to develop a new peer-reviewed journal is one that will advance the goals of the College of Human Development, Culture, and Media, as well as the university at large, and I am eager to continue collaborating with TKG and my Seton Hall colleagues on this exceptional project moving forward.
