Teaches Courses in:

Abnormal Psychology, Psychology and the Law, Forensic Psychology, Research & Methods, and Introductory Psychology,

Research interests:     

My research interests lie in law and psychology and forensic-clinical psychology. My primary interests focus on the prediction of violence, domestic violence, and sex offenders. However, I also am interested in non-clinical areas such as jurors’ notions of insanity and the admissibility of scientific evidence.
