Biography
I enjoy teaching statistics and research methods in the Psychology department, as well as mentoring undergraduate and graduate students. I co-direct the General Experimental Psychology MA Program, and am active in student success initiatives at the department and college levels. I also enjoy contributing to our department awards and community building committees. My research investigates emotional development in the context of adversity, from a developmental psychopathology perspective.
