I will be graduating in May 2020 with a Bachelors of Science in Brain & Cognitive Science from the University of Rochester. I have also completed minors in Bioethics and Clinical Psychology and a Certificate in Stage Management through the University of Rochester International Theater Program.

For the past 2.5 years I have worked as a Research Assistant in the Youth Risk and Resilience Lab with Dr. Catherine Glenn. The two largest projects I worked on were an ongoing ecological momentary assessment study on sleep and suicide risk, and the publication of a global study of adolescent suicide rates over the past 10 years.

My research interest is broadly the impact of social development on adolescents risk for mental illness.

I hope to work in a research lab to narrow down my research interest and gain technical skills before eventually pursuing a PhD in Clinical Psychology.
