Rachael is a third-year undergraduate student pursuing a B.A. in Psychology with a concentration in Clinical & Behavioral Health, along with a double-minor in Health, Medicine, & Society and Creative Writing. Her current research experiences focus on a variety of topics, ranging from assessing psychological pathways of online radicalization, evaluating the outcomes of language-equity policies in mental healthcare, and analyzing the relationship between physiological activity and discussion quality in parent-child conversations. Looking ahead, she hopes to pursue further education in clinical/counseling psychology, and gradually focus her research towards addressing strategies that help to improve mental healthcare quality, delivery, and effectiveness, specifically for survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence.
