I am the Project Coordinator for the Michigan Twins Project (MTP), led by co-directors Dr. Alexandra Burt and Dr. Kelly Klump. I have been working with the Michigan State University Twin Registry since January of 2011 and have enjoyed gaining experience with twin research and taking on the challenges involved in developing a large-scale registry. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Michigan State University and a Master of Arts in Social Science from the University of Chicago.

In my free time I like to read, watch movies and explore Michigan with my wife and daughter.
