I am a Master’s student working under the guidance of Dr. Anne Iaccopucci. My current research focus is adolescent development and mental health, especially in the context of the school environment. I am particularly interested in positive relationships between adolescents and their adult mentors, and how these relationships impact overall wellbeing and success.

Before joining the Human Development Graduate Group at UC Davis, I completed my undergraduate degree in child development at Brigham Young University in Utah. I then had the opportunity to work in an administrative role at a high school in New York City, which solidified my commitment to furthering research on adolescence. I’m very excited to be at UC Davis, and look forward to learning from the professors and my fellow students here!
