APPLIED RESEARCH
My mission is to use behavioral science to enhance the wellbeing of diverse populations around the world. To pursue this mission, I combine quantitative and qualitative methods from experimental social psychology, cultural psychology, epidemiology, and human-centered design for clients and employers in technology, media, healthcare, education, and economic development.
