Bio
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences and a licensed psychologist in the state of Minnesota. I completed my BA in psychology and sociology here at UMN and received my MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Maryland. I completed internship training at the Massachusetts Mental Health Center within Harvard Medical School. Prior to joining the department, I was a postdoctoral associate in the Cognition and Brain in Psychopathology Lab led by Scott Sponheim and in the Translational Research in Cognitive and Affective Mechanisms Lab led by Angus MacDonald III in the Department of Psychology at UMN.
My research focuses on identifying risk factors and mechanisms underlying psychosis that can serve as novel, neuroplasticity-based intervention targets. My overarching research goal is to improve outcomes in psychotic disorders by enhancing early detection and improving treatments.
