An important aspect of my research is that I strongly believe that open science is the way to create a more equitable research community. All deidentified data, syntax/code, and output files for my first-authored projects are available upon request.
All of my first-authored projects are currently in the process of being added to the Open Science Framework; the goal is to complete this in 2027.

I am a passionate teacher and mentor, and hope to share my love of mixed methodology and equity-centered research with my students and future lab members.
A crucial component of my research is to analyze with diversity and equity woven into all steps of the process. Understanding how our multiple identities shape who we are is paramount; we cannot just choose one aspect of ourselves to explain our experiences, but instead use a holistic, 'whole person', comprehensive approach.
