ABOUT ME

As a first generation college student, I recognize the value and importance of education in enabling opportunities to ensure and sustain a lucrative and rewarding life. My passion for imparting knowledge across educational structures is the motive behind my scientific objective of disseminating empirical research.

​

I began my academic story by dedicating most of my recreational time to address and explore uncommon behaviors or conditions that were  inadequately evaluated. This was decisive in my ambition to become engrossed in my research domain of investigating spatial development. In conjunction with examining language acquisition, my goal of studying spatial abilities was aligned with merging both areas that I was zealous about by joining the Project on Language and Spatial Development.

​

Having had the privilege of being invited to and accepted to present at numerous revered psychology conferences has emboldened my research gamut of increasing awareness about the importance behind spatial development to incentivize the implementation of practices encouraging the frequent engagement of spatial dexterity in regular activities with a determination to minimize the disparities that exist with regards to differences observed in gender representations across STEM fields.
