What I do
I recently completed my PhD in Cognitive and Comparative Psychology from The City University of New York Graduate Center. As a comparative psychologist, I study animal behavior and cognition. My dissertation focused on individual differences in behavior and cognition in wild Asian elephants and how these differences influenced whether elephants take risks to go into human-dominated landscapes. I am continuing to work as a part-time postdoctoral researcher as part of the Comparative Cognition for Conservation Lab at Hunter College while teaching as adjunct faculty. I'm excited to teach in the Department of Psychology at DU!
