I am a Ph.D. Student (G2) in the Department of Psychology at Princeton University, concurrently advised by Erik Nook in the Logic of Emotion Lab and Natalia Vélez in the CoLab.

Broadly, I am interested in children's affective and social development. To this end, my research examines how children become attuned to emotions in service of social connection. I am also interested in how children develop emotion concepts and beliefs.

I received my A.B. from Wellesley College, where I double majored in Psychology and Sociology. As an undergraduate, I had the pleasure of working as a preschool teacher at the Child Study Center and researching children's imaginary companions in the Imaginary Lab, led by Tracy Gleason.
