Current projects include:
1. An examination of engineering undergraduate students' experiences of mental health and equity using a mixed-methods design, in collaboration with engineering education faculty, Dr. Jessica Deters and students
2. An exploration of the relationship(s) between classism, heterosexism, and psychological outcomes among sexual minority adults in the U.S.
