Bio
I joined the Indiana University School of Medicine faculty after completing a postdoctoral fellowship in population neuroscience of aging and Alzheimer's disease at the University of Pittsburgh in Fall 2022. As a gerontologist, I am interested in understanding what changes occur as we age and identifying ways to ensure that we age as successfully as possible.I am also a research investigator with the Regenstrief Institute Center for Aging Research.

My emerging research program is focused on identifying modifiable risk and resiliency factors of older adult physical, cognitive, and psychological health and well-being. Ultimately, my goal is to use findings from observational studies to develop fun, sustainable behavioral interventions that promote resilience. In particular, I am interested in developing these interventions among sexual and gender minoritized individuals in order to eliminate health disparities and promote flourishing among this population.
