I am a second-year BBQ graduate student working with Dr. Jeff Girard. I am interested in how emotion perception is influenced by individual differences (e.g., mental health and personality), the functions of affective synchrony between interacting dyads, and differences in emotion expression due to social factors (e.g., context, social roles).
