About me

I am a researcher, program developer, clinician, and entrepreneur. I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Informatics at King’s College London, a visiting Scholar with the Department of Social Policy and Intervention at Oxford, and a Junior Research Fellow at Linacre College, Oxford. I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Arizona State University and completed my APA internship at Children’s Hospital of Colorado.

I also serve as co-chair of the Health Equity Special Interest Group for the Society for Digital Mental Health. Please reach out if you are interested in having your work featured in our newsletter or serving as a speaker!

My research is driven by a passion for breaking down barriers to effective prevention and treatment programming. I aim to improve access to evidence-based interventions that work to help children and families, especially after difficult transitions like divorce, separation, bereavement, and incarceration.

In support of this, I am currently Principal Investigator of a clinical trial investigating the adaptation of a gold-standard parenting program for divorced and separated families to a podcast format, funded by a Visionary Grant from the American Psychological Foundation.

Areas of interest: Parenting Interventions, Digital Mental Health, Prevention Science, Dissemination and Implementation, AI, Human-Centered Design, Co-Design, Human/Computer Interaction

Mentors: Perhaps the best way to understand my research is by viewing the work of the incredible scholars from whom I have learned.
I want to thank the incredible mentors I have had, especially Sharlene Wolchik and Karey O’Hara, for their incredible contributions to my growth and to science. I owe all that I am to the incredible minds who gave so much of themselves to help me grow. I will shamelessly promote Karey as the best mentor an incoming PhD student could hope for!
I also thank Dr. Petr Slovak and Dr. Jamie Lachman for welcoming me so generously to your teams.
