Graduate Student, Industrial-Organizational Program I am a first-year doctoral student in I/O Psychology at UGA. My fascination with organizational behavior began during my first psychology lab experience, where I realized how seemingly small misunderstandings—such as a manager’s offhand comment—could escalate into toxic workplace dynamics. This sparked my commitment to using research to give voice to unspoken struggles, especially those faced by marginalized groups. My research focuses on understanding and improving workplace dynamics, with particular emphasis on fostering fairness and employee well-being. My past work has explored how stressors, gender norms, and organizational practices influence behavior—from job-related strain to newcomers’ adaptation to workplace challenges. I am dedicated to generating findings that help organizations create environments where individuals can thrive.
