I am broadly interested in studying how social partners support the development of children's attentional control and language. My work implements multilevel modeling techniques to investigate the moment-to-moment dynamics of parent-child natural interaction such as shared joint visual engagement and language exchanges, influencing infant learning and sustained attention at multiple timescales. I examine corpora of infant-caregiver naturalistic interactions in both lab and home environments.

I obtained a Ph.D (2019) in Psychology (advisors: Linda Smith and Chen Yu) and a MSc in Applied Statistics (2018) from Indiana University. I am a Reader of Child Psychology at ISEY (the Institute for the Science of Early Years and Your) at University of East London, and Postdoctoral Research Fellow (New York University London, advisor: Catherine Tamis-LeMonda). Before joining ISEY, I worked as a Lecturer (University College London) at the Centre for Applied Statistics Courses (UCL's CASC).
