A small story for a Monday night: A group of students in my History of Psych class devised a game of musical chairs to illustrate the concept of survival of the fittest. The prize was a box of Kinder eggs…representing the successful reproduction of those fittest.

Pleased and proud to share that recent honours student Ben has just accepted an offer to do a PhD in evo psych at Michigan. Appropriately, he is in Denver this weekend presenting his research at SPSP.

I don’t need to go on social media to have my worldview challenged I am in theoretical physics I have a new existential crisis daily

A small introduction: I am an associate professor, a health psychologist, an eclectic, and a university teacher. Manuscripts currently under review used experimental, correlational, and qualitative designs, respectively, because it’s more fun that way. Also a kayaker, ballroom dancer, & night owl.
