I am a fifth-year doctoral student at ICD working primarily with Dr. Melissa Koenig and Dr. Charisse Pickron. I am broadly interested in how children learn from others' testimony. In particular, I study how children's own social biases and prejudices impact how children learn from and judge the trustworthiness of other people.
