 I
am a Society in Science:
Branco Weiss Fellow
and NIMH Postdoctoral Fellow in
Psychoneuroimmunology at the Cousins
Center for Psychoneuroimmunology at UCLA, where I
work with Naomi Eisenberger, Connie Hammen, and Shelley Taylor. I completed undergraduate
and graduate coursework in psychology and communication at Stanford
University, working with Ian Gotlib and B.J. Fogg,
and received my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the
University of Oregon, working with Scott Monroe and
Anne Simons. After receiving my Ph.D., I was
a clinical psychology intern at McLean Hospital, a clinical
fellow in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School,
and an NIMH Postdoctoral
Fellow in Psychology and Medicine in the Department of
Psychiatry at UCSF, where I worked with Margaret
Kemeny and Elissa Epel. In addition to my research, which examines the
psychobiology of stress and disease, I am deeply devoted to teaching
and mentoring, and to developing groups and forums that promote
student development while advancing
psychological science.
