Research Interests

I am interested in cross-cultural neuropsychology and the influence of individual experiences, sociocultural, racial/ethnic, and linguistic factors of risk and resilience in cognitive aging and dementia. Specifically, I would like to investigate how these factors may explain disparities in cognition and health outcomes, particularly within multilingual and immigrant populations.
