I am interested in how people's social group memberships (such as social class, sexual orientation, culture, and nationality) affect social perception. My research specifically aims to understand how our faces reflect our social identities and experiences (and how others detect this), how our group memberships impact our perceptions of others, and how we mentally represent members of various social groups. See my website for more details.

I teach on a variety of social psychological and social cognitive topics, including person perception, stereotyping, prejudice, and inequality. I teach on the following modules:

BSc

• PS2030 - social psychology
• PS2110 - how psychology can change the world (applied & developmental perspectives)
• PS3090 - social psychology in the real world
• PS3195 - psychology of equality, diversity, & inclusion
• PS3240 - psychology of love, death, & meaning

MSc

• PS5202 - intergroup & interpersonal processes [module coordinator]

I am also the director of the MSc in Applied Social Psychology.

I received my BA in Psychology and German from Cornell University, and my MA & PhD in Psychology from the University of Toronto. Prior to starting at RHUL, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Glasgow.
