Curriculum Vitae

I am a Ph.D. candidate in social and personality psychology at the University of California, BerkeleyI am also affiliated with the UC Berkeley IGERT program in Politics, Economics, Psychology, and Public Policy.

My research focuses on the intersection of social hierarchy, emotion, and intergroup relations. I am currently working on research projects concerning:
  • The psychology of social class
  • The social effects of rank and status
  • Unethical and prosocial behavior
  • Intergroup conflict and reconciliation
  • Collective emotions

I investigate these topics in naturalistic settings as well as in controlled laboratory experiments.

***Check out articles in The Economist and The New York Times that feature our work on wealth, poverty, and altruism, or listen to my interview about this research on National Public Radio's All Things Considered.***
