Prior to joining the University of Maryland, I held assistant professor appointments at Pennsylvania State University - York and Millersville University.

My research interests explore effective and efficacious interventions for depression and suicide meaning I am interested in what interventions work and how well do they work to treat depression and reduce suicide. Additionally, I am interested in clinical science literacy, especially how the (mis)understanding of science affects clinical practice. Similarly, I am interested in increasing science literacy through clinical training.
