HI, I'M LANDRY.

I'm a quantitative social science researcher interested in adolescent mental health and decision-making. In the fall of 2022, I earned my PhD in neuroscience at the University of Georgia, during which I studied adolescent neurodevelopment. My work is informed by biopsychosocial and ecological frameworks, as well as a firm belief that kids, teenagers, and humans in general are absolutely incredible.

As a PhD student and NIDA NRSA fellow, my research focused on the development of neural processes underlying decision making and emotion processing and subsequent contributions to risk behaviors in adolescence. I am well-versed in quantitative analytic methods using R and Mplus, and I am driven to use this expertise to move quantitative psychological science forward in an open and reproducible way.
