About Me

PhD student, Princeton Baby Lab
Department of Psychology, Princeton University

I am a first-year PhD student in Psychology at Princeton University. I work with Dr. Casey Lew-Williams in the Princeton Baby Lab. Previously, I worked with Dr. Marisa Casillas at the University of Chicago as the manager for the Chatter Lab. Broadly speaking, my research focuses on how young children’s rich and highly variable everyday language input shapes their early word representations.
