BIO

My primary focus is on teaching. I am not currently involved in research, but working on identifying and promoting the factors that influence the wellbeing of students and student veterans. 

My previous research examined: 1) identifying predictors of maternal and paternal sensitivity with an emphasis on parents’ emotional responses to infant cues; 2) examining the intergenerational transmission of fathers’ parenting practices with an emphasis on identifying factors that contribute to discontinuity.
