ABOUT

My research broadly explores inequality and intergroup relations. I am particularly interested in how potential safety cues might lead to improved intergroup and intraminority coalitions across political, racial, and disability divides that might challenge policies or institutional structures that uphold or exacerbate inequality and inequities.

Affiliations

I am affiliated with Disability Advocacy and Research Network (https://darndisability.org) and am the co-social media manager of the DARN LinkedIn website. I am helping develop this network for disabled social psychologists and allies to create a more inclusive environment for disabled individuals in academia. As a contributor, I also have critiqued the portrayals of disability and disabled characters for about the past two years for the Disability Action Research Kollective (DARK).

I am also a research consultant for Dr. Monica Schneider (a professor at Miami (OH)). I am helping facilitate her research through different steps in the research process.

Personal Interests

Outside of my research interests, I am an avid chess player, enjoy martial arts, and watching movies and sports.
