Ph.D., University of Pittsburgh
Research Areas: Clinical Psychology. I study how emotions are expressed through verbal and nonverbal behavior, as well as how interpersonal communication is infuluenced by individual differences (e.g., personality and mental health) and social factors (e.g., culture and context). This work is deeply interdisciplinary and draws insights and tools from various areas of social science, computer science, statistics, and medicine. Current research projects focus on identifying patterns of expressive behavior related to depression, PTSD, and psychosis.
