Clinical Psychology Graduate Student

I am a 4th year clinical psychology graduate student at the University of Kentucky. My research mentor is Dr. Justin Karr. My research interests revolve around subjective cognitive decline in older adults and I am completing training in neuropsychology while at the University of Kentucky. My clinical background has consisted of training at UK's Jesse G Harris Psychological Services Center, the Kentucky Clinic's Orofacial Pain Clinic, the Leestown Veterans Affairs Medical Center, and Norton Neuroscience Institute. As of 2025, I am the graduate student seat for the American Psychological Association's Committee on Aging (CONA).

I love to spend my weekends hiking and camping inside the Red River Gorge or thrifting at the Peddler's Mall or Goodwill! I have a black cat named J.J. Binks, and a tabby and white cat named Tucker. Please reach out to me if you have any questions about the lab or my research.
