Research Interests

My research focuses on adult development and cognitive aging. I am particularly interested in the physical and mental health of family caregivers of people living with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementia (ADRD). Using a micro longitudinal approach, I aim to contribute to research by explaining how caregiver characteristics, caregiver unmet needs, depressive symptoms and anxiety are associated with risk of engaging in Elder Abuse and Neglect (EAN).
