I am a fifth-year clinical psychology PhD candidate working with Dr. James J. Li. My work integrates dimensional models of psychopathology, advanced statistical modeling, and state-of-the art genomic tools to redefine how we classify, predict, and assess mental health disorders across human development. My specific research interests include:

  1. The underlying structure of psychopathology, with a focus on externalizing behaviors/traits and neurodevelopmental features
  2. The development of psychopathology across the lifespan, with an emphasis on childhood and adolescence
  3. Etiology of externalizing behaviors/traits and neurodevelopmental features, especially gene-environment interplay
  4. Clinical utility of dimensions versus DSM diagnoses
