I am a Clinical Psychology Ph.D. student (major area of study in Clinical Health Psychology). My research interests include health promotion behaviors and lifestyle changes that may mitigate the risk of cognitive decline/dementia in older age. I am specifically interested in how women's health factors, including menopause, may increase their risk of developing cognitive problems, and what lifestyle behaviors they can implement to combat this risk.
