Professional Summary

I'm a pediatric psychology researcher interested in eating behavior and how it relates to physical and psychosocial health for youth and families. I am particularly interested in the impact of food insecurity on dysregulated eating, with a focus on Hispanic/Latino adolescents and Spanish-speaking families. My research is also connected to the Cincinnati community in partnering with local non-profits focusing on food access as part of health equity.
