Dr. Grundy received his Ph.D. in Psychology from McMaster University in 2013. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow at York University from 2014-2018. He assumed his current position as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at Iowa State University in August of 2018.
Fun fact: He is one of six kids in his immediate family, and his mom is one of 13, most of whom also had several kids. Needless to say, family gatherings get pretty chaotic! BUT they’re always fun :)
