Areas of Interest

I received my Ph.D. in Applied Developmental and Educational Psychology and Certificate in Human Rights and International Justice from Boston College following my Ed.M. in International Education Policy from Harvard. Currently, as a lecturer at Northeastern, I cheer for everyone in the Beanpot except BU.

My academic pursuits are interdisciplinary and varied, focusing on the intersection of research and practice in child development.  I examine longitudinal trajectories of micro family processes, school socialization pathways, and child achievement and socio-emotional outcomes.  I am particularly interested in the cumulative developmental deprivation of poverty and low levels of education.  Furthermore, I am invested in examining new ways of investigating such trajectories within statistics. My broader academic passions include international education issues and the preservation of the best interest of the child from a humanitarian perspective.

I aim to teach my courses from an applied point of view, encouraging students to acquire practical knowledge for utilization in their future practitioner roles.
