I am am PhD candidate supervised by Dr Nicole Nelson and Dr Amanda Taylor. I am also part of the Develop Well lab at the University of Adelaide.

My interests lie mainly in developmental and child psychology, mental health, and neurodivergence. I am particularly interested in anxiety, its related symptoms and disorders, and how anxiety occurs in different populations.

My PhD research investigates how autism and anxiety impact children's understanding and perception of, and engagement in, social-emotional skills.
