I am a Ph.D. student in social psychology at NYU, supported by a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship. I am a member of the Center for Conflict and Cooperation at NYU and the Climate Cognition Lab at Stanford.

My research program integrates social psychological theory with large-scale behavioral science methods to identify, test, and translate effective strategies for motivating collective action on climate change. I address a core challenge in social psychology: how to change beliefs and behaviors in politically polarized, emotionally charged, and globally diverse contexts.

I graduated in 2021 from the University of Miami where I studied Psychology and minored in Studio Art, Political Science, Philosophy, English Literature, and Management. During my senior year, I began working part-time as a Research Specialist with the Behavioral Science for Policy Lab at Princeton University, where I worked until 2023.

In my work as an artist, I primarily use portraiture to explore the human condition and my own experiences. In recent years I have also extended my artistic pursuits into filmmaking.

In my free time, I enjoy painting, stop-motion animation, rock climbing, Citibiking around NYC, and thru-hiking trails like the Camino de Santiago and Via Alpina.
