About Me

I am a fourth year Social Psychology doctoral student at Rutgers University, working primarily with Dr. Diana Sanchez, and also with Dr. Laurie Rudman. I am currently working on projects investigating perceptions of multiracial individuals as well as transracial adoptees. Current research also investigates perceptions of targets of benevolent sexism as well as factors that influence recognition and confrontation of prejudice.

I completed my masters thesis in 2008 on motivation to engage in gender conforming behavior and its effects on self-esteem and gender identity.

I earned my BA in 2006 from Washington & Lee University, Lexington, VA, with a major in Psychology and minor in Women's Studies. For my senior thesis, I completed a project on the effects of educational intervention on the acceptance of benevolent sexism, advised by Dr. Julie Woodzicka.

I am originally from Delaware, but currently reside in Somerset, NJ with my husband, Steve, and our two kitties.
