Bio

Major: Psychology

Research Interests: The positive, protective factors that impact one's ability to cope with and recover from stress or chronic illness. Specifically, I am interested in how communal coping, positive affect, and meaning and purpose impact one's adjustment to and management of chronic illness.

Hometown: Boulder, CO

I graduated from Colorado College in 2015, and completed my post-baccalaureate in Preclinical Psychology from Northwestern University in 2019.

Interests/Hobbies: I love to hike and backpack, and have done several long-distance backpacking treks. I'm also a big animal person, and enjoy volunteering with both cats and dogs at the local animal shelter.
