Welcome!

I'm an Assistant Professor of Social Psychology in the Department of Psychology at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. Research in my lab examines how stigma shapes health and wellbeing in its many forms. We typically examine the consequences of stigma through the lens of social identity threat. Our lab uses both experimental and non-experimental methods, including experience sampling, daily diary designs, and theory-driven analyses of large, often publicly available datasets. 
​
I previously completed my Ph.D. (2017) in Social Psychology at UCSB working with Dr. Brenda Major in the Self and Social Identity Lab, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship (2019) in Health Psychology at UCLA in Dr. Janet Tomiyama's Dieting, Stress, and Health Lab.
