Biography
My focus is on teaching students at Ohio University. As a developmental psychologist, I’m interested in how relationships impact development. My research has focused on how parent-child, parent-teacher, and teacher-student relationships impact the development of emotions and social skills during the preschool years. In the past, I’ve conducted professional development with early childcare educators with a particular focus on the Reggio Emilia approach.
