About Me
I am an assistant professor in Counseling and Counseling Psychology program at Indiana University. I earned Ph.D. degree from the Counseling Psychology Program at the University of Missouri-Columbia.
My research interest lies at the nexus of vocational psychology, social justice training and advocacy, and inequity in the world of work. I take an intersectional approach to understanding the influence of oppression and marginalization on academic achievement and career development among members from oppressed groups. With my focus on cultural and contextual influence on individuals’ career development, I strive to address inequities in STEM by investigating a variety of cultural and contextual factors. Additionally, I endeavor to name the structural inequity within the education system that could guide the culturally and contextually sustaining intervention and support for the oppressed groups.
I have served as an editorial board member for the Journal of Counseling Psychology, as well as the Journal of Career Assessment, and has been recognized for my work, including Donald E. Super Fellowship and Joseph A. Johnson Research Award. I also served diverse roles for leadership, committee, and volunteering, including treasurer of International Section in Division 17, American Psychological Association.
I am admitting doctoral students. Strong applicants will have experience or genuine interests in conducting research in my area of interest, though not exclusively, with a commitment to socially conscious inquiry. You are welcome to contact me via email if you are interested in working with me. I am happy to answer any question you may have.
