I am a PhD candidate in clinical psychology, with a secondary focus in quantitative psychology, in the Department of Psychology at the University of Virginia. I primarily work with Bethany Teachman, PhD, in the Program for Anxiety, Cognition, and Treatment lab, and with collaborators in computer science and engineering on the MindTrails Project, a public research website for interpretation bias training.

My research seeks to elucidate the cognitive, affective, and behavioral processes that maintain emotional disorders and the pathways by which psychological treatments can change those processes. By identifying mechanisms of disorder and change, I hope to advance the development and dissemination of targeted, scalable, and personalized interventions. I also have interests in methodology and open science.

I am currently on clinical internship at the Stony Brook University Consortium and working with Jessica Schleider, PhD, and colleagues in the Lab for Scalable Mental Health at Northwestern University.

I am the open science coordinator for the Society for Digital Mental Health and UVA's outgoing student representative to PCSAS. I was formerly on the Executive Committee of the Diversifying Scholarship Conference and co-chaired the Research Committee of UVA's Graduate Student Council.

Before graduate school, I was the research coordinator for the Behavioral Research and Therapy Clinics at the University of Washington. I received a BS in psychology and a BA in philosophy from Tulane University and an MA in clinical psychology from UVA.
