About

I'm a researcher currently completing an accelerated BA/MA in Psychology and Comparative Human Development at the University of Chicago. My work sits at the intersection of behavioral science and user research, with a focus on how people make decisions in real-world settings.

Across academic labs and applied consulting contexts, I've studied digital behaviors, motivation, and social influences that support meaningful behavior change. I'm especially interested in moments where intentions and outcomes diverge—and how thoughtful design, product strategy, and behavioral intervention can help close that gap to create lasting behavioral change.
