"They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it’s not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.”

-Terry Pratchett

Currently, I am a research psychologist at the Selection and Assignment Research Unit (SARU) of the U.S. Army Research Institute. My work broadly covers the identification, validation, and research on factors pertaining to solider acquisition and retention. 

I completed my doctoral studies in Human Development at the University of Maryland, College Park in May 2023. During my time there, I worked in the Early Childhood Interaction Lab.  My research was focused on understanding relations between children's early math knowledge and their use of gesture, as well as how other domain-general factors (such as executive function) may impact these relations.
