I am beyond excited to announce that I have been accepted as a graduate student into the Clinical Psychology PhD program at the University of Michigan @UMich! I will be studying under the mentorship of Dr. Aidan Wright @aidangcw beginning this fall.

For those considering post-bacc programs, here is a fun paper I led w/ @neurovelosa describing 10 ways to thrive in them! Though the state of these programs is uncertain, I hope it’s still informative for future students @TheRealDrDukes journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

June was a whirlwind for our post-bacc program. The grant that funds us was terminated 😣 But we had an amazing symposium & celebrated our scholars going to grad school🎉 🎓 Now the Ten Simple Rules paper authored by our scholars is finally published 🙌🏾 journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

Lab road trip to Association for Research in Personality conference is under way!
