I have a background in clinical, social, and cultural psychology, with a focus on promoting the mental health of vulnerable and underserved communities.
Through my work, I’ve learned that creating a better world requires research that is accurate, representative, and ethical.
Understanding the complexity and diversity of human experiences underscores the need to design tools and services that reflect the realities and address the needs of our social world.
My goal is to apply the insights I’ve gained as a clinician and researcher to deliver rigorous, actionable research that drives the creation of inclusive products and services.
I take a pragmatic approach to research, embracing qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods to answer the questions that matter most.
Outside of research, I enjoy reading literature and non-fiction books, creating video essays on YouTube, working out, and playing role-playing video games.
I also love learning about new topics ranging from paleolithic archaeology to cosmetic chemistry.
