I am a Ph.D. student in Experimental Psychology at Ohio University. My research explores how people mentally revisit the past and how these reflections shape emotions, social relationships, and judgments. I study topics including nostalgia, counterfactual thinking, subjective temporal distance, and judgment and decision-making.

My interest in research began as an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh, where I worked in several social psychology laboratories and completed an honors thesis on relationship conflict. After graduation, I served as Lab Coordinator of the Reasoning and Decision Making Lab at Wesleyan University, coordinating an NSF-funded research program on numerical cognition. I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology under the mentorship of Dr. Keith Markman at Ohio University, where my work focuses on nostalgia, counterfactual thinking, and subjective experiences of time.

Beyond research, I enjoy teaching, mentoring students, crocheting, and playing tennis. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to chat about research, graduate school, or psychology!
