Biography —
My research interests include examining anxiety-related disorders in children and adolescents and underlying mechanisms that may serve as risk or protective factors. Emotion regulation, intolerance of uncertainty, and parent-child relationships are of particular interest. Additionally, I am invested in furthering research efforts that aim to address equity and accessibility for historically underserved and underrepresented populations in the field of psychology.
