I am an Assistant Professor at the University of North Carolina Charlotte School of Social Work, where my research and teaching focuses on:
- Schools and family homelessness
- Social and emotional learning interventions in school settings

I received my PhD and MSW from Boston College and my M.Ed in high school foreign language teaching from the ACE Program at the University of Notre Dame.
