My heart is full from all the questions I got this year from @spssi.bsky.social conference! I got to present my work examining how identity denial from either ingroup or outgroup members can predict Multiracial wellbeing. Being Multiracial myself this work is close to home and I hope it is a start!

Imagine if every scientist published an op-ed in their hometown paper showing how their community sparked their curiosity & shaped the research that's now changing the country? That's what @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social is promoting—collective action, one story at a time. doi.org/10.1038/d415...

Proud to announce my first first authored paper has been published online at JESP with Drs. @sarahegaither.bsky.social and @jackiemchen.bsky.social! We used a cross cultural sample to test two theories about racial ambiguity categorization. The preprint will be on OSF soon!

The AAUP wholly condemns this punitive weaponization of federal grant funding. This attempt to discipline & control a university campus is a transparent hallmark of authoritarian rule & harshly violates the central mission of education to serve the public good. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/n...
