I am a Ph.D. Student (G3) in the Department of Psychology at Princeton University, where I am advised by Erik Nook in the Logic of Emotion Lab. I am concurrently advised by Natalia Vélez in the CoLab at UCSD.

Broadly, I am interested in affective development and social cognition. One arm of my research program examines the formation of emotion concepts and beliefs from childhood to young adulthood. The second arm of my work examines how and when children attend to affective cues during collaborative efforts.

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.
