Research Interests

I am interested in the socio-emotional development of children and youth, focusing on adolescents of color and the risks and promotive factors that impact their mental health and well-being. I specifically study critical consciousness development and youth activism, as well as the sociocultural and contextual influences (parental/family, poverty, racism) on their development.
