Biography
I am finishing up my doctoral degree in Social/Personality Psychology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). My primary line of research focuses on attachment in donor-conceived adults (i.e., people born via assisted reproductive technology, ART). A second line of work explores attachment style and lie detection, specifically whether people who are high in attachment anxiety are better lie detectors than others.
