TRANSFORMING HEALTH RESEARCH & INTERVENTIONS VIA EQUITY 
(THRIVE) LAB

I am the principal investigator of the Transforming Health Research & Interventions Via Equity (THRIVE) Lab. As an intergroup relations researcher, my body of work examines evidence-based interventions to promote the success of singly and multiply marginalized persons across a variety of organizational environments. My lab primarily utilizes experimental methods, but also utilizes mixed-methods to identify strategies and behaviors that engender identity-safety, allyship, and other clinically relevant outcomes for marginalized persons.

GENERAL LAB RESEARCH AREAS

  • Interventions aimed at reducing prejudice and stigma.

  • Promoting positive intergroup interactions.

  • Translating evidence-based interventions into practice.

  • Cultivating psychological safety for minoritized individuals.

  • Interventions aimed at promoting health equity for Black persons.
