I am a recent CU graduate with a B.A. in Psychology, and, given my sociology minor, my research interests in clinical psychology are complimented by my passion for social justice.听 I am interested in pursing research regarding mental health in general, specifically looking at how physical health, substance use, addiction, and sociological factors are interwoven. I am also interested in studying and potentially working with underserved and underrepresented populations in regards to these issues.听听
I will working on the Cannabis studies at CUChange, which provides me the opportunity to further many of my research goals. I am curious about how Cannabis use is correlated with physical health outcomes as well as mood and cognition, and I am excited to work on the studies looking at these research questions through the lenses of pain and anxiety.
In my free time, I enjoy running, hiking, and dancing. I also love traveling! I've lived in several different states, lived in England for a couple years as a kid, and spent a semester of undergrad in Copenhagen, Denmark.听听
