Associate Professor, Associate Director of the Center for Family Research, Clinical Program My primary area of research focuses on racial health disparities and investigating how psychosocial and contextual stressors can affect both mental and physical health outcomes for marginalized populations, with an emphasis on Black American populations. My research focuses on utilizing novel techniques to examine stress biomarkers and physiological dysregulation linking psychosocial stressors with health and health behavior. I aim to implement innovative, interdisciplinary, and integrative approaches to the study of psychosocial stressors and health disparities in order to inform prevention-oriented interventions among disenfranchised populations.
