I am a postdoctoral research fellow in the Lab for Scalable Mental Health and Center for Behavioral Intervention Technologies in the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University.

My research aims to clarify 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 received a PhD in clinical and quantitative psychology from the Department of Psychology at the University of Virginia, where I worked in the Program for Anxiety, Cognition, and Treatment lab, and with collaborators in computer science and engineering on the MindTrails Project. I completed my clinical internship at the Stony Brook University Consortium.

I am the open science coordinator for the Society for Digital Mental Health and during graduate school was UVA's student representative to PCSAS, served 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 BA in philosophy from Tulane University.
