My research interests focus on how children and parents affect each other as well as ways to improve early childhood interventions. I investigate how difficulties with self-regulation (e.g., emotion regulation, executive functioning) and adverse social determinants of health (e.g., experiencing poverty, crowded housing, inaccessible healthcare) affect responses to early childhood mental health interventions. My current projects focus on identifying factors impeding benefits to brief, scalable, and accessible parenting interventions and adaptations needed to improve the effectiveness of these interventions for both young children in their caregivers.
