About
I completed my Ph.D. in Industrial-Organizational Psychology at the University at Albany, State University of New York in 2019. After holding a one-year appointment as a Lecturer of Management in the School of Business and Economics at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh, I accepted an offer in 2020 to join the Department of Psychological Science at Missouri University of Science and Technology. My primary areas of research are in the following domains:
- Adjustment and socialization of organizational newcomers
- Goal setting and motivation in work and achievement settings
- Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
