Welcome! I am a doctoral candidate in Community & Applied Developmental Psychology at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC). My research explores how educators adapt social and emotional learning (SEL) programs and integrate SEL into everyday instructional practices. I'm particularly interested in understanding the individual and contextual factors that shape teachers' decisions about embedding SEL within their pedagogy. I have a deep passion teaching and plan to pursue a teaching-oriented career upon completion of my PhD.
