Research Interests

Developmental Psychopathology

A large portion of my work has focused on the impact of executive functions on the presentation of impairments in academic functioning in children who are neurotypical and those diagnosed with ADHD.

  • Individual differences in functional impairments associated with externalizing behavior disorders (emphasis on ADHD).

  • Cognitive, temperamental, and parental factors which may moderate or influence the heterogeneity in presentation of functional impairments.

    Psychopathology and Intervention in Minoritized Populations

  • Examine the efficacy of evidence-based intervention protocols (e.g., behavioral parent training, cognitive behavioral therapy) when utilized with minoritized populations.

  • Develop culturally sensitive adaptations for intervention protocols to better address the needs of minoritized groups, who have been largely underrepresented in previous intervention trials.
