| What is your current research focus? | I am currently in an evolutionary social psychology lab studying how people respond to selfish behaviors in group dynamics. I find all social psychology interesting but social evolutionary psychology specifically has quickly become one of my passions in research. It takes into account how the environment of our evolutionary ancestors can translate to our behaviors today in modern environments that often don't match those of our past. |
| Are there any other research related activities you participate(d) in? | |
| Answer one of the following two questions about being a UROP Leader or your UROP background. | How has UROP impacted your time at FSU? |
| Please answer the question you selected above in the area provided. | When I first applied to UROP I wanted to get involved with research because I knew it was important for grad school. However, since then UROP has opened up so many doors to amazing opportunities. I got to present at research conferences outside of just FSU, which inspired a passion for not just conducting research but sharing and teaching on the findings! I also got to make great connections, not just my mentor but my prospective PI for my honors thesis next semester, which I would not have been able to conduct had I not taken part in UROP. It has truly been such a powerful tool to more possibilities on campus. |
