I am a Ph.D. student in the social psychology program at the University of Kansas, working under the supervision of Dr. Omri Gillath. My research focuses on understanding how interpersonal dynamics, particularly within close relationships, influence people’s well-being. I am especially drawn to the multidimensional nature of this field, where relationships are shaped by both intrapersonal factors, such as personality traits and attachment styles, and interpersonal processes that unfold between individuals. I believe exploring these dynamics offers valuable insights into the ways human connections can enhance or hinder well-being.
