I recently completed my PhD in Psychology at Princeton University.

My primary research interests are stereotyping processes and social inequality.

Using a combination of quantitative experiments, descriptive studies, and textual analysis methods, my doctoral research asks: How are stereotypes formed, and how are they changed? How do people understand the concept of social inequality, and what are the psychological factors that motivate people to rationalize the status quo, versus actively work to change it? How do people, including people from different social groups and identities, communicate and persuade each other? And finally: What are the implications of all these questions for public policy?
