About

Throughout my career, I have been motivated by a simple and enduring desire to make a difference in the world. That motivation has shaped the research I have chosen to prioritize, the content in the classes I teach, and the institutions where I have served. When I reflect on what has mattered most, it is not titles or milestones. It is “impact.”

For graduate students, mindfulness offers more than a popular approach to stress reduction. While it can certainly ease stress, its benefits extend much further — fostering resilience, sharpening focus and supporting success in every area of life, whether as a student, researcher, professional or individual.
