Welcome!I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Psychology at Yale University. I work with Drs. Arielle Baskin-Sommers and B.J. Casey in the Mechanisms of Disinhibition and Fundamentals of the Adolescent Brain labs.
I received my Ph.D. in Psychological Science from the University of California, Irvine and specialized in developmental psychology, psychology and the law, and quantitative methods. My research broadly focuses on juvenile delinquency and adolescent development within the context of the juvenile justice system. |
