About Me

I am an incoming assistant professor of psychology at Ohio Wesleyan University (starting Fall 2025).

Currently, I am completing my PhD at the University of Wisconsin–Madison working in the Brauer Group Lab and as a graduate fellow at the Institute of Diversity Science. I study group behavior and persuasive messaging in the contexts of climate change and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). I am particularly interested in how social norms are communicated via social norms messages and how these messages affect behavior. In a secondary line of research, I examine psychological methodology and data collection procedures.
