I am a research scientist who specializes in human data. My career focuses on individual differences: People differ in their cognitive abilities (memory, attention, problem solving), and these differences correlate to many real world tendencies and behaviors.
​
This type of work is multifaceted and requires both experimental and correlational research techniques. In general I use regression and multivariate techniques (factor analysis, structural equation modeling) to build theoretical positions, and then followed up with more traditional ANOVA-based experiments in which I can test specific hypotheses. ​
