Research Interests

I focus on family-based prevention science and its longitudinal impact on children's academic and behavioral outcomes. My research is multidisciplinary and closely aligns with MPC’s emphasis on population-level approaches to inequality, health, and education across the life course. It also supports LCC’s mission by examining how early interventions influence long-term developmental trajectories, with implications for well-being and healthy aging.
