About me

I am interested in person perception and social cognition, with a focus on first impressions from faces.

I received my PhD and MA in Psychology from the University of Toronto, where I worked in the Social Perception and Cognition Lab under the mentorship of Nick Rule. I received my BA in Psychology and German from Cornell University, where I worked in the Implicit Social Cognition Lab with Melissa Ferguson.

After a postdoctoral research position at the University of Glasgow, I was a lecturer at Royal Holloway, University of London for three years before coming to Stirling.
