About
PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
I am a doctoral student in personality psychology with a strong interest in quantitative methods. In my applied work, I implement a decision-theoretic, biopsychosocial lens. Professionally, I have researched and consulted on matters of managing healthcare professionals.
Skills
Academic
My academic interests are largely quantitative, including areas of psychometrics (e.g., item response theory, exploratory graph analysis, factor analysis), cluster analysis, and other statistical modeling approaches. I also enjoy decision theory. Click here to see some of my academic work.
Professional
I leverage psychometric expertise in tandem with consulting experience to identify, quantify, and address healthcare workforce concerns. Specifically, I work with stakeholders to survey and develop a focused intervention for their staff.
Pedagogical
Having taught both undergraduate and postgraduate audiences at various levels of expertise, I can impart complex ideas simply and (sometimes) effectively.
