As a student at George Mason University, I will be graduating with a Bachelor’s in Psychology with a concentration in Work & Organizational Psychology in May 2023. In the past year, I have worked as a research assistant for Dr. Steve Zacarro’s Z-Group Lab at George Mason University. Research and collaboration are no strangers to me as I have worked with a diverse group of researchers focusing on leadership and multi-team systems. These projects were a great learning opportunity as I’ve developed skills necessary in research such as conducting literature reviews, drafting transcripts, and managing data.I'm hoping to eventually conduct my own research in the future, specializing in topics such as diversity and the influence of culture in the workplace.
