I graduated from St. John Fisher University one year early in May 2025 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology within the honors program. This fall I will be attending The Pennsylvania State University to earn my PhD in Developmental Psychology. 

During my undergraduate career, I was a research intern at Mt. Hope Family Center (University of Rochester) on the NIH-funded Adult & Family Health studies, and a research insights intern for Excellus BlueCross BlueShield. I was also a research assistant for Dr. Zachary Gold's Play and Development Lab, and Dr. Jessica Robinson & Dr. Melissa Goodwin's Transition to College Study. I additionally conducted an independent research project as a summer research fellow under Dr. Jessica Robinson. Throughout my involvement, I realized that my lifelong love for writing, enjoyment for learning, and passion for statistics was a perfect match for psychological research.

In my free time, you can find me reading or writing, rooting for the Buffalo Bills or Kansas City Chiefs, at the gym, and spending time with those I love (both human and dog). I am  first-generation student that deeply values learning, DEI, mentorship, and open science.

I was recently interviewed by St. John Fisher University in anticipation of my graduation! View it here.

I am committed to mentorship, giving back to the privilege I had of excellent mentors throughout my career. If you are interested in my mentorship, please fill out this form.
