I am a Ph.D. Student (G2) in the Department of Psychology at Princeton University. 

I am advised by Natalia Vélez in the CoLab and Erik Nook in the Logic of Emotion Lab, where I previously worked as a Lab Manager.

Broadly, I am interested in how children navigate the affective and interpersonal challenges of everyday life. I am especially interested in how children become attuned to emotions in service of social connection. In my work, I leverage a combination of methods from affective, cognitive, and developmental science.

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.
